Anker offered Eufy camera owners $2 per video for AI training

Anker, the parent company of Eufy, has offered Eufy camera owners $2 per video for their contributions to the company's AI training efforts. This offer has resulted in hundreds of Eufy customers donating hundreds of thousands of videos to help improve Eufy's AI systems. The videos provided by Eufy customers are used to train the company's AI algorithms, which are responsible for features such as facial recognition and object detection. By leveraging these user-generated videos, Anker aims to enhance the capabilities of its Eufy security cameras and other products. The compensation of $2 per video is seen by some as a way for Anker to incentivize customers to contribute to the AI training process. However, the decision has raised concerns about privacy and the potential implications of using customer data for commercial purposes without clear consent.
