"My role is in AI annotation. I collect data from various sources, label it, and train AI models so they can recognize and predict objects. Over time, the models become semi-supervised and can make decisions on their own,"
"Professionally, there is no real difference. Whether in small towns or metros, we work with the same global clients from the US and Europe, and the training and skills required are the same,"
"For too long, opportunities have been concentrated in cities, leaving rural youth behind. Our mission has always been to create world-class careers closer to home, while proving that quality work can be delivered from anywhere."
Virudhunagar combines ancient heritage with a growing AI workforce performing annotation, data collection, labeling and model training so systems can recognize, predict and increasingly self-supervise. The shift of outsourced IT into smaller towns, known as cloud farming, reduces staff and space costs while serving the same global clients. Desicrew, founded in 2005, pioneered bringing jobs to local communities to limit migration and expand opportunities for rural youth. Desicrew’s services include software testing, building datasets for AI and content moderation. AI-related work currently makes up 30–40% of its business and is projected to rise sharply to 75–100%.
