AirTags are intended to help you locate objects you've misplaced. While you can potentially get updates of an object that is moving they're not designed to be used for real time tracking. From AirTag - Apple:

AirTag is designed to discourage unwanted tracking.

If someone else’s AirTag finds its way into your stuff, your iPhone will notice it’s travelling with you and send you an alert. After a while, if you still haven’t found it, the AirTag will start playing a sound to let you know it’s there.

Of course, if you happen to be with a friend who has an AirTag, or on a train with other passengers who have AirTag, don’t worry. These alerts are triggered only when an AirTag is separated from its owner.
