Meta is ramping up the pressure for its employees to use AI. The Facebook parent company is tracking how extensively its teams are using AI through dashboards it rolled out earlier this year, and it created a game to boost employees' usage, Business Insider has learned. Expectations around AI usage vary by teams. Staff in some departments are encouraged to play with AI tools, while others are being pushed to meet specific targets, according to four current employees.

A third of British companies are using "bossware" technology to monitor staff when they work from home, and it's causing serious trust issues among staff. That's according to a survey of 900 UK managers by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). Crucially, nearly as many said they didn't know what tracking their employer did, so the figure could well be higher.

The real danger in this case isn't the ransom note - it's how Fog turns a simple screen-recorder into a hidden camera. Software is an essential driver of growth and innovation for every company; however, business apps we install on autopilot can suddenly become spy tools, which means trust is the weak spot. Security teams should keep a live map of where every monitoring app is allowed to run and flag it the moment one pops up somewhere odd.
