> A new challenger approaches. Enter RentAHuman, a platform that AI agents can use to find humans to perform actions they themselves are not capable of completing.

> Think about that for just a second. It's the Silicon Valley equivalent of hiring day laborer from the Home Depot parking lot. And if the startup's website is to be believed, they've got more than 600,000 "humans" signed on looking to be hired. At least they don't have the fear of being deported.

The article is dated April 2. Did it come out a day late?

Asking for a friend.
