Meta is dialing back elements of its plan to collect employee mouse movements, keystrokes and other actions for use as AI training data, it said in an internal memo on Tuesday, following weeks of angry pushback from staffers. New controls will allow employees to pause the data collection for up to 30 minutes at a time and request exemptions from the initiative, according to the memo, authored by Stephane Kasriel, a vice president in Meta’s AI model-building Superintelligence Labs unit. Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta announced last month that it was installing new tracking software on US-based employees’ computers to capture mouse movements, clicks and keystrokes for use in training its artificial intelligence models Bloomberg via Getty Images Kasriel said the team behind the software had also introduced “several optimizations” to reduce its impact on computer battery life, after employees complained it was consuming so much data that it was causing their home internet usage to spike.
