Google mandates U.S. employees to opt into AI health tool Nayya for benefits starting 2026, raising privacy and consent concerns.
Google is requiring U.S. employees to opt into a third-party AI health tool, Nayya, to maintain eligibility for health benefits starting in 2026, sparking concerns over coercion and data privacy.
The tool analyzes health and lifestyle data to offer personalized benefit recommendations, though Google says it only accesses basic demographic information unless employees choose to share more.
While the company claims the system complies with HIPAA and does not share individual data, employees and advocates argue that tying benefits to data sharing undermines true consent.
The move reflects a broader trend among tech firms to use AI for employee wellness, but Google’s approach has drawn criticism for potential overreach and lack of transparency.
