Meta is installing new tracking software on US-based employees' computers to capture mouse movements, clicks and keystrokes for use in training its artificial-intelligence models, part of a broad initiative to build AI agents that can perform work tasks autonomously, the company told staffers in internal memos .
When I was a CAD tech for that same land surveying company I absolutely refused to send anything out unless someone else had checked it. But there’s a huge difference between doing a good job at work and having a baby sitter while on the job. If anything, I’d say having someone constantly monitoring me makes me do a worse job because it’s so much more stressful.
Correct, I highlighted it here because most don’t know how willing and trusting survey professionals are, so if one points out baby sitting so to speak it’s coming from a place of experience.
So you were a CAD tech…yep, you’d have had field surveyors hand their data in, needing your checks and your work for accuracy and interpretation would be scrutinised well by office surveyors or the field surveyors themselves. I am a surveyor so I avoided doing your job as much as possible; most of us hate the office component.
constantly monitoring
Again, funnily enough, for all the scrutiny of work, CYA you have to do and the multi displaces you have to work with, it’s one of the most autonomous jobs you can do.
