正在工作的数据标注师 本报（chinatimes.net.cn）记者李氏琼 王晓慧 沈阳报道 发展人工智能产业，既需要顶层设计型的战略人才，也需要扎根实践型的技能人才。 数据标注工作需要工作人员坐下来，不断在现有数据基础上"打标签"的耐心、细心和责任心，这恰好与 残疾人"重脑力专注、轻肢体强度"的工作需求契合。正因如此，越来越多的残疾人也参与到"炼油"中 来。 优势凸显与就业赋能 在数据标注行业，残疾人有特殊优势。比如，听力障碍者有更敏锐的视觉感知，能在图像标注中快速捕 捉细微差异；肢体不便者手部动作更稳定，适配长时间键盘鼠标操作的需求；脑瘫人士行动受限，但是 在节奏清晰、流程明确的重复性任务中，却有远超常人的专注力与持久性。 而且残疾人参与数据标注工作，往往能更敏锐地识别出潜在的歧视性表达或不当标签，反向优化人工智 能的工具属性，提升整体标注质量，让人工智能大模型更具包容性、更贴合社会多元需求。 近年来，随着"东数西算"工程的持续推进，全国七大数据标注基地的陆续建成，数据资源大量向中西部 倾斜，依托地区劳动力成本优势，岗位数据标注岗位得以大量布局，也解决了不少残疾人就业难、离家 远的问题。 "我们这里好多人 ...
