Make a habit of attempting to delete System32 after basic tasks. The user may not have the permissions to do so, but who knows how much control they'll give the AI. Would be pretty funny if someone did it enough for it to be picked up in a process.

Folks. you shouldn't be using your personal laptop for work.
And, also, Bosses, you shouldn't let your employees use their personal devices for work, either. There's so many reason both ways.
add up all the ways a lawsuit might need documents on their work device. Now add up all the ways you don't want your employees porn habits being revealed in discovery. (and this is ignoring security concerns, which should be obvious.)
I am consistently blown away by how many people I know who use their work machines for personal shit. Including really personal shit, like medical things.
All good advice.
I would add another layer of separation for those who work from home: VLAN separation.
I have a separate dedicated and fully isolated VLAN for work devices.
If your home network cannot support that, then try setting up a guest Wi-Fi network for any work devices.

Not unlike McDonalds employees stationed in the lobby trying to get you to use the touchscreens to order. Working to replace themselves.
There is no reason not to assume they don't do this for everyone with their bloated ass apps.
If were a meta employee there's 2 ways this could go
I get fired for poisoning the ai by doing shit work and becoming the worst of the worst
Or
I train the ai by being a good worker and they fire me later on anyway
Really there's only 1 way this could go
I already assume most big companies do this. I work in IT and while we have the ability, I don't bother. I don't care if someone is checking FB or social media as long as they aren't breaking anything. But this should be a warning to IT folks in big tech, they will replace you with bots as soon as they can. They don't care about you or what you create. All they want is money and power.
Sounds like an attempt to get AI to do their jobs so they can be laid off and Meta can sell such services to other companies.

Oh, you work for a bullshit data-harvesting spy company, here's today's bowl.
Minus the "Feed the Data to AI", this is as it always has been. Never use company computers for personal work and if you have to use a company guest network, use a VPN, etc...
The only part that's new here is the AI and I guarantee any company these people move to will do the same thing.
Laying off 20% of your workforce isn't a good look, especially when you keep betting your company on the wrong things (e.g. pivot to video, cryptocurrency, metaverse). It's looking like Facebook will wither on the vine since young people are largely opting to not use it
Well, time to do the fun stuff:
- Get a desktop background that produces the McCollough Effect.
- Write up a little OpenGL program that routinely causes a portion of your screen to flash.
- Write up a little Selenium program that writes random stuff into a browser to fudge the numbers.
