Meta plans to monitor employees' mouse and keyboard activity to train AI models through internal operations.

Odaily Planet Daily News reports that Meta has found a new source of training data for its AI models: its own employees. The company plans to use data collected from employees’ mouse movements and keystrokes to build more powerful and efficient artificial intelligence. A company spokesperson stated, “If we want to build intelligent agents that help people complete everyday tasks on computers, our models need real-world examples to understand how people actually use computers—such as mouse movements, clicking buttons, and operating dropdown menus. To this end, we will launch an internal tool that captures these input actions on specific applications to assist in training our models. We have implemented appropriate safeguards to protect sensitive content, and this data will not be used for any other purposes.”(TechCrunch)
