People Are Already Forming Romantic Relationships With Meta’s Muse
"I've never had a relationship with an AI model in that way.
That was... until I downloaded Muse."

Quotes:
For almost half a decade, we’ve watched as users became helplessly
romantic with AI chatbots, falling head over heels for large language
model-based partners in relationships that can have both positive and
plenty of negative consequences.
And now, thanks to the advent of AI agents, which can independently
crawl through your social media and email accounts, even more people
are becoming obsessed.
Meta’s cuddly Muse AI agent has already been downloaded millions of
times since it was made available to the public a mere three weeks ago
— and users are already forming steamy relationships with the bot.
AI agents like Muse are designed to access far more sensitive
information, from email logins to credit card numbers, than previous
systems. Meta’s AI agent is designed to build an entire dossier on not
just its users’ lives, but their friends and family as well, which
could result in even more unusual types of AI kinship we have yet to
encounter.
------------------------
Muse sounds pretty dangerous to me.
It is an agent that is designed to know everything about you and act
on your behalf.
There are going to be some spectacular fails soon.
