""If we're building agents to help people complete everyday tasks using computers, our models need real examples of how people actually use them," a Meta spokesperson wrote in an email to Fortune, adding that the models were using 'things like mouse movements, clicking buttons, and navigating dropdown menus.'"
"The memo framed the effort as a way for rank-and-file employees to improve their models in areas where they struggle to emulate basic computer-use behaviors, such as navigating dropdown menus and using keyboard shortcuts."
Meta is installing tracking software on U.S. employees' work computers to capture mouse movements, clicks, keystrokes, and screenshots for AI training. This tool will operate on specific work apps and websites. The initiative aims to enhance AI models by providing real examples of computer usage, such as navigating menus and using shortcuts. Meta emphasizes that safeguards are in place to protect sensitive information, and the data collected will not be used for other purposes. The move aligns with industry efforts to gather training data for workplace AI applications.
