  • even if its true, its only for one feature of Muse right? Everything else is fully automated.

    the post and headline is clickbait and gives the wrong impression that muse itself is operated by humans. very few people will use the voice or call feature.

    the post reads a bit amateurish and ignorant

  •   Some Meta employees have been praising Muse on X, where AI boosters and AI agents alike can share ever more hype about the technology that’s boiling the Earth. Internally, though, Meta employees realize that a human-driven AI making calls for users has potential for “so much negative PR,” warning co-workers on the board that “It could portray us as ‘their AI is not good enough so they still need humans’ kind of coverage for this launch. Another post, with a fairly lucid handle of the situation, wrote, “Please PLEASE do not release this as-is and at least make this a user preference if we absolutely must launch this. Please.”
    Just beautiful.

  • That article seems to be a 2nd hand take on this: https://www.404media.co/meta-tests-muse-ai-agent-calls-that-...

    Anyways, aside from being make believe, there's another good point that this is disclosing private information to humans, probably not well paid ones at that?
