A viral Reddit post has sparked outrage about the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor employee activity. The post details a user’s encounter with employee monitoring software that goes beyond traditional methods, utilising AI to analyse a variety of metrics.
The software reportedly tracks not just keystrokes and program usage, but also typing speed, websites visited, emails sent and received, and even mouse movement patterns.
