AI Agents Can Now Hire Humans to Finish Tasks They Cannot
A new platform called Rent a Human allows AI agents to outsource tasks to real people when automation falls short, highlighting an unusual hybrid model of human-in-the-loop labor.
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch of artificial intelligence that enables computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language. It combines linguistics, computer science, and machine learning to process text and speech in ways that make sense to humans. NLP powers many familiar applications, including chatbots, voice assistants, translation tools, and sentiment analysis systems. By analyzing grammar, meaning, and context, NLP models can extract insights, summarize content, and respond intelligently to user queries. As AI advances, NLP continues to evolve toward more nuanced understanding, enabling natural, human-like communication between people and machines.
