Meta's Muse AI Assistant Rolled Out With a Serious Security Flaw Meta says it issued a fix for the Muse zero-day vulnerability that would have let attackers do "whatever" they wanted on a victim's Mac, highlighting the inherent dangers of AI helpers. Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has gone to great lengths to hype the security of its new AI assistant, Muse, claiming it is "built from the ground up for privacy and security." A zero-day vulnerability that gives locally run apps and terminal commands complete control of the agent raises serious doubts. Further raising questions, Amazon on Sunday began blocking Muse from its site. Meta introduced Muse a few weeks ago.
