The Robot Hid the Camera Feed and Still Exposed the Room
Task-scoped exports preserved navigation while their residual ability to reveal household details varied sharply.
Summary
Task-scoped exports preserved navigation while their residual ability to reveal household details varied sharply.
Task-Functional Perception Distillation keeps rich perception local, then profiles exported representations for task utility, direct exposure and several inference risks. Across 120 AI2-THOR scenes, three exports produced identical navigation success and path efficiency, yet representation linkability ranged from 0.532 to 0.970. Replacing an explicit target label with a region cut target-category macro-F1 from 1.000 to 0.077 while holding task success at 0.995. A ProcTHOR replication preserved the main privacy-inequivalence result but changed which representation looked safest, arguing against one universal abstraction ordering.
