Big tech companies are reportedly using data from Indian factory workers wearing wearable cameras to train robots. The footage captures real-time tasks like assembly, inspection, and routine factory work, helping machines learn how to perform similar actions more accurately.
The aim is to improve automation systems by teaching robots how humans carry out industrial jobs. Companies say this can boost efficiency and reduce errors on production lines.
However, the practice has raised concerns about privacy and consent, with experts warning that using workers’ data in this way could lead to ethical and labour-related issues.
