Meta trains AI on workers

- Meta reportedly began feeding remaining employees' activity into AI training pipelines after mass layoffs, using keystroke and activity monitoring across internal tools rather than limiting telemetry to ops-only use. - Reports cite keystroke tracking, privacy concerns and an 8,000‑job reduction at Meta as the company freezes some hiring while aggressively redirecting resources into AI projects and monitoring tooling. - The practice collapses the line between telemetry and model training, raising legal and trust risks that large platforms will now face under scrutiny.
