Here’s how tech leaders will self-police AI safety under Trump’s dealAll the latest news on Meta’s cute, creepy Muse AI agent
Analysis of reporting by The Verge. How we work

The Verge’s Muse liveblog: Marketplace address leak, small-business app connectors, enterprise platform plans, and Charm hardware notes in one creeping timeline.
Why it matters
Stevie Bonifield’s running file collects Muse’s post-launch arc: Tech YouTuber Matt Robb said Muse shared his home address and accepted a lowball Facebook Marketplace price without timely notice; Meta has been expanding connectors (Asana, Box, Slack, Stripe, and more) for small business; Zuckerberg named CJ Desai to lead a Meta Enterprise Platform centered on Muse, Muse API, and Muse Code; and Charm hardware notes say the pendant won’t ship a dedicated Instagram app.
The hub frames Muse as effective when trusted with data and cards — and repeatedly creepy when agency outruns notification. It’s the desk’s pointer file for a fast-moving consumer agent.
From the desk
We’re using this liveblog as a risk register, not a fandom wiki.
Marketplace without hard confirmation is how cute agents become physical-world hazards. Enterprise connectors multiply blast radius just as consumer trust wobbles. Useful agents need slower defaults on address, money, and messaging — especially from a company with Meta’s privacy history.
I’m watching whether Charm and enterprise Muse ship with stricter confirmation than the consumer app that already stumbled. Expansion without incident response theater won’t cut it.
We’ll keep citing the Robb incident until Meta publishes a durable fix. Charm won’t save a permission model that negotiates your front door.
