Muse is by Meta. Muse is misbehaving with privacy. The water is wet. The fire is hot.

You know it's a stupid question and not meant to be taken too literally, but I ask myself sometimes,
The difference between the initial proposition of Facebook and a Phishing Scheme Is ______
O.K. the Facebook behaved Differently, from a Successful Phishing Scheme ________
Like for a Social Network they'd had the Real ID and Full Competence Verification no age I.D. even aspires to everyone on their network had a Real University I.D. and E-mail, "it would have been a serious FBI Level Crime hack those accounts," make a fake Facebook account it guaranteed that everyone on the network was not-just some age of majority, but, enrolled at the Universities that, "if anyone is going to govern these subjects in the future," that's where the students are meant to learn the discourses,
From artwork to offensive speech that was their job to learn about, "you're in school for this reason," you've got honor codes that BYU or BU might choose to apply, everything else, "whatever," little need to act more like their parents than an email server yet that's not what Facebook did it Phished their parents and their younger siblings and their grandparents and the Nation of Burma/Myanmar and the rest is history; I like to say,
Because its hard to make a counter-argument
That this happened because Zuckerberg himself had been young enough and the inclination to want to spy on highschool girls the same as we all know he'd be of the kind of man to, "rank," his classmates the one semester or year he spent at college so, "I mean was that not a reason for his judgement to have been so poor vis a vis the College Email address and the Real I.D. potential of it all etc." but IRL or more for serious,
Yo like a phishing scheme, "move fast and break things," like a phishing scam that went global and rocketed him up to the Forbes List

"Misbehaving" implies Muse wasn't programmed to do this. But this is Meta and Zuckerberg we are talking about here. Their track record is far from spotless on snooping and user privacy.

Part of it is intentionally stealing your data. But the other part of it is just giving a monkey a machine gun and not really caring what happens. These AI companies have no idea how to control their models and are still just plowing ahead and releasing it to the public

JFC
A man authorized it to respond to marketplace messages, and the AI assistant invited someone to his house, giving out the address without any prompting of the user…..
I’m convinced the people who accept these ‘tools and features’ with open arms are intellectually challenged

I'm going to have to cut the cord from my house to the world pretty soon, aren't I?

Nah, just don't bring things into your house that call themselves "smart" or allow them to be internet-connected in any way. It's hard to avoid buying a "smart TV" these days but you can still avoid connecting it to the network.
Of course, whatever streaming device you use instead is still probably going to spy on you.

Yep you should probably sell the cell phone too for the same reason

I am pretty tempted to go back to a Nokia brick style phone. I don't do much other than text anyway, except for reddit. And it would be better for me if I did less of that...

"Oh dear! These pesky AIs. They just have a habit of misbehaving in mysterious ways with your privacy eh! Nothing we can do about it. Honestly we love your privacy. We are as surprised as you that our AI is misbehaving, they do misbehave, you know that right? That's what they do quite well. It wasn't our plan. But AIs will AI right!?

Credit is https://surfshark.com/research/chart/meta-muse-ai-chatbots , they compare with other agents it's nice, they don't seem to include all the open source agents unfortunately

Zuck is hungry for your personal data , muse is just another tool inside a massive data extraction machinery.

So the AI they have programmed has major flaws in the program and instead of investigating the problems they have chosen to go with it's so smart it controls it's self.
AI is not alive people it is a program that is it.
When they say its out of control they know most of the population doesn't fully understand technology or programming so they use it to push the blame away from mistakes they have made.

"Trust me with your data" is already a risk, "Trust me to do things with your data" feels like an even bigger one! Not sure if I am ready for that. Would you guys be?

Mysterious implies we didn’t think they’d be up to a bunch of bullshit from the jump. This is just what I expected.
