- Meta is installing tracking software on U.S. employee computers to record mouse movements, clicks, and keystrokes for AI model training.
- The tool runs on work-related apps and websites, with occasional screen snapshots, to improve AI in areas like dropdown menus and shortcuts.
- Data collection is part of an initiative to build autonomous AI agents, not for performance assessments, with safeguards for sensitive content.
- Employees' daily work activities will help enhance models, as stated in internal memos and by a Meta spokesperson.
