  43. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s a new day, and we have another new update to the AI saga that just doesn’t feel right. Elon Musk’s xAI reportedly used biometric data from employees to train AI avatars, particularly Ani, an anime-style AI girlfriend. This doesn’t necessarily read like a headline that one might expect in 2025, but on the flip side, such occurrences are </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">not unusual for Musk’s many businesses. </span></p>
  44. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">While there is much discussion on his newly gifted $1 trillion</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> pay package from Tesla, </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">controversial news stories emerging from the xAI business prompt us to ask just how employees are being compensated for the time, resources, and now, biometric data that they are allegedly obligated to provide their employer.</span></p>
  45. <div id="attachment_39388" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img post-id="28035" fifu-featured="1" fetchpriority="high" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-39388" class="size-full wp-image-39388" src="https://www.thehrdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/xAI-biometric-data-employees.jpg" alt="xAI biometric data employees" width="1000" height="600" srcset="https://www.thehrdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/xAI-biometric-data-employees.jpg 1000w, https://www.thehrdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/xAI-biometric-data-employees-300x180.jpg 300w, https://www.thehrdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/xAI-biometric-data-employees-768x461.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px"></p>

  47. </div>
  48. <h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">xAI Employees “Compelled” to Hand Over Biometric Data to Train Musk’s AI Girlfriend Chatbot</span></h2>
  49. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A new report from the</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Wall Street Journal</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> brought to light some interesting details about xAI Ani’s biometric training, stating that employees at the organization were “</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">compelled to turn over their biometric data</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">” for the purpose of training the AI avatars for the chatbot. This was specifically alarming when it came to companions like Ani, an anime-themed girlfriend that is designed for explicit activities. </span></p>
  50. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">While the </span><b>employees who were obliged to do so were part of the team assigned to tutor these chatbots,</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> the use of their personal features was certainly an unusual addition to their employment contract.</span></p>
  51. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a staff meeting held in April, company lawyers spoke with xAI employees, specifically AI tutors, to request that they relinquish their biometric rights for a program internally labeled Project Skippy. </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">WSJ </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">viewed documents that stated that xAI staff felt compelled to give up their rights to the company. They were asked to sign a form that provided the AI organization with “</span><b><i>a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, royalty-free license</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;">” to use their data and likeness for its internal and external needs. </span></p>
  52. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The lawyers informed workers that aspects such as their facial likeness and voices could be beneficial for training AI avatars to present more natural, human-like responses during their interactions with viewers. </span></p>
  53. <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">xAI Employees’ Biometric Rights Handed Over for Company Use</span></h3>
  54. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Were employees allowed to opt out of giving xAI their biometric data? That remains unclear. Employees were reportedly kept in the dark about their options, with most receiving a note after a week to “</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">actively participate in gathering or providing data, such as…recording audio or participating in video sessions</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.” The note also added that “</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">such data is a job requirement to advance xAI’s mission</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">,” which likely left little room for the employees to back out.</span></p>
  55. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">While xAI has not commented on this situation, a spokesperson only told </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gizmodo</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, “</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Legacy Media Lie</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">s.” The incident is decidedly the most unusual employer practice we’ve seen around the use and development of AI. Employers who saw the highly sexualized nature were understandably unhappy when xAI’s Ani, built on their data, was revealed. </span><b>But having signed a form to permit such use, there was likely little for them to do in response</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></p>
  56. <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thoughts on xAI’s Biometric Data Controversy and Musk’s Overreach</span></h3>
  57. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">xAI’s decision to utilize biometric data from employees isn’t explicitly forbidden by the law, and the company’s decision to involve a lawyer in the conversation allowed it to emphasize that the company was aware of the consequences and was making a calculated decision to solicit employee data. This does, however, bring us into the</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> grey area that the CEO’s businesses often operate in. </span></p>
  58. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">As these employees were specifically brought in to train the AI, some would argue that the decision to use xAI employees’ biometric data for training Ani was permissible. However, unless the job description explicitly states this would be the case, it is important to provide a clear path to opt out of such tasks, specifically with clauses that confirm no repercussions will be levied for doing so. Not only does this help to put workers at ease, but it also reasserts employee faith in the organization. </span></p>
  59. <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Compliance and Consent Can Be Hard to Provide Under Pressure</span></h3>
  60. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The avenues of accessing AI training data have already proven controversial over the last few years, with multiple cases being fought on the grounds of illegal use. Unfortunately, when it comes to employees, there is little representation for their individual concerns. The tutors affected by the incident have not emerged to speak about their own experience with xAI soliciting their biometric data to create its NSFW content for high-paying customers, so it’s hard to verify the details of the case for now. </span></p>
  61. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ultimately, it falls to companies to uphold the highest standards of transparency with employees and customers to ensure that there are no unfortunate incidents where workers feel cornered into making decisions. From the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">WSJ </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">reports, it appears that xAI employees’ biometric rights were obtained in a way that left them with few options, which can be a concerning path to go down. </span></p>
  62. <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Eventually, </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">more AI regulations may be set in place</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for AI training and use both in and outside of the workplace. For now, it’s up to employers to ensure employees are well-informed and similarly compensated for the work they do for the organization. </span></p>
  63. <p style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">What do you think about xAI using its employees’ biometric data for training Musk’s AI girlfriend? Share your thoughts with us.</span></i><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Subscribe to The HR Digest</span></i><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for more insights on workplace trends, layoffs, and what to expect with the advent of AI. </span></i></p>

  83. <p style="text-align: justify;">For decades, money talk at work has been considered taboo. It’s <em>still</em> a hush-hush topic whispered about in break rooms, if at all. But a new survey by résumé-building service <em>Kickresume</em> suggests that the next generation isn’t playing by those old rules. While only 31% of employees globally say pay is openly discussed at their workplace, Gen Z is leading a quiet revolution in transparency. Nearly 40% of Gen Z respondents say they freely talk about salaries, compared to 30% of Millennials and just 22% of Gen Xers.</p>
  84. <p style="text-align: justify;">Even when the subject is off-limits, 18% of Gen Z workers admit they go ahead and talk pay anyway. And geographically, the divide is just as striking! Only 27% of Americans say salaries are openly discussed, compared to 34% of Europeans and 24% of Asians.</p>
  85. <p style="text-align: justify;">The takeaway? The U.S. may still lead in keeping pay discussions under wraps but Gen Z is starting to crack the code of silence.</p>

  89. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">Why it matters</h2>
  90. <p style="text-align: justify;">In the past, compensation was treated as deeply private. Employers preferred this discretion and many employees accepted it as a workplace norm. But research suggests hiding pay details can undermine performance.</p>
  91. <p style="text-align: justify;">For forward-looking companies, then, pay transparency isn’t just a “<em>feel-good</em>” initiative. It’s a strategic lever. When employees trust that compensation practices are fair and open (or at least reasonably so), morale, retention and productivity benefit. On the flip side, continued secrecy amid a culture of openness may breed resentment, suspicion or even retention problems with younger talent.</p>
  92. <h2 style="text-align: justify;">What it means for employers</h2>
  93. <p style="text-align: justify;">So what should an employer in 2026 do? Here are key take-aways:</p>
  94. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Evaluate your pay-disclosure stance.</strong> If your company prohibits discussing pay, you may be swimming against a cultural tide especially when the youngest employees feel more comfortable talking about money than their leadership.</p>
  95. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Be proactive with salary ranges.</strong> As job-postings increasingly list compensation bands, companies that hide them can appear outdated or worse, untrustworthy.</p>
  96. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Prepare for conversations.</strong> Transitioning to openness means tackling disparities and explaining rationale: why roles are paid at certain levels, how raises are determined, etc. The conversations may be uncomfortable, but the alternative is worse: <em>silent frustration</em>.</p>
  97. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Align transparency with fairness.</strong> If you go public with compensation practices, you must deliver equitable pay. Otherwise, transparency becomes a magnifying lens on inequities (gender, race, tenure) you would rather manage privately.</p>
  98. <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Tailor to your culture.</strong> A high-trust, collaborative startup may sail into full transparency quickly; a large legacy organization may need a phased approach (for example: first release salary bands for new hires, then expand to incumbent roles). As the article indicates, smaller companies already fare better on pay-discussion openness.</p>
  99. <p style="text-align: justify;">If Gen Z is your next wave of talent, the message is clear. <em>Pay is not taboo</em>. Today’s generation expects open conversations, or at least the change to engage in them. For companies, the choice is no longer between <em>why</em> and <em>if</em>, but <em>how</em> to do so fairly.</p>
