Runner-ups
summary
Classifies gig workers into 4 worker types and maps the decision points where platform algorithms shape earnings and behavior, arguing for a humans and algorithms model that is partly cooperative and partly extractive. Reports field research with roughly 230 interviews and 300+ observed shifts, builds simple prototypes (onboarding tweaks, peer-network nudges) and finds they raise belonging and short‑term retention but do not close structural income volatility, leaving policy and business-model fixes still necessary.
