Meta has reduced its employee data collection for AI training following staff complaints. The company will now allow employees to pause data tracking for up to 30 minutes and request exemptions. This change comes after employees raised concerns about privacy, battery drain, and increased internet usage due to the tracking software. Meta's initial plan to capture mouse movements, clicks, and keystrokes aimed to improve AI models but faced strong internal resistance.
