Meta has started using a new internal system that tracks employee computer activity, including clicks, mouse movements and typing patterns, to help train its artificial intelligence tools. The company says the goal is to teach AI systems how people use software and complete everyday office tasks.
Meta said the data will be collected only from work devices and will not be used to judge employee performance. It also said safeguards are in place to protect sensitive information.
Still, the move has raised concerns among some employees, who worry about privacy and increased workplace monitoring. Critics say it reflects the growing tension between fast AI development and employee trust.
