Muse Creates Detailed Profiles of All Your Friends and Family

Millions have downloaded Meta's AI agent Muse. But getting it to do your bidding comes with privacy costs. Meta's new personal assistant, Muse, has become a viral hit, with millions downloading the AI agent, connecting it to bank accounts, messages, or health data, and allowing it to complete tasks for them. But as Muse takes off among consumers, data from inside the app is providing insight into how it organizes and presents information to users. In recent days, multiple researchers have extracted Muse's internal files and dumped the agent's operating instructions, providing a glimpse of how the system was built and behaves. Meta has maintained that it intended for these files to be accessible in the interest of transparency, and they do provide insight into how Muse responds to prompts and questions about, for example, highly politicized or sensitive topics.
