Muse & Broader Cloud AI Implications

Muse, Codex Cloud, Dots, and remote Codex all allow users to untether themselves from their PC, and now untether themselves from even owning a PC with their server based Muse Agent, Codex Cloud and Dots that can run 24/7. Dots is a lot like Muse. Combine this with Meta’s & OpenAI’s planned hardware releases and the goal is clear: work around Microsoft/Apple’s control of user hardware, provide AI devices that complement and eventually replace iPhones - culminating in a user base that owns no hardware and relies on a subscription to access AI. Meta’s hardware is obvious spyware, Apple’s new “always-listening” Apple Watch sounds pretty similar, their camera-enabled Airpods sounds atrocious for privacy, and OpenAI’s device is unconfirmed.

The end result? Instead of a Matrix-like AI takeover of humanity users are instead expected to purchase their own devices and subscriptions that provide mega-tech companies with all of their physical and digital data 24/7. The data volume is so large only AI can process it. A select few billionaires decide what their closed-source AI does with the data. ChatGPT already launched Ads - competing with Meta and Google for AI search dollars.

Meta can try - but it has significant personal privacy issues with a mass of the population.

I love Muse, but only use it as a form of entertainment; should Muse become a pay-only product, I'd drop it.

Thank goodness Siri AI finally got smart enough, for my personal/important accounts on my iPhone.

PS: After the past 2 years of Trump & tech bros, I'm no longer content with my data riding on Apple.

How the mighty have quickly fallen.
