After researchers found AI conversations appearing online, Meta paused Muse's sharing feature

Meta pauses Muse sharing after researchers find AI chats on the web

AI summary

Meta suspended Muse's conversation-sharing feature after researchers at the security company Claroc found through public DNS records that more than 6,800 Muse share links could be retrieved. Claroc said Muse constructs URLs from a share title plus a random ID, that the hostname often exposes the page content before it is opened, and that the hostname retrieved from DNS can be used to reconstruct the link. Based on this, the researchers viewed hundreds of Muse conversations, including a marketing company's revenue assessment, a small business owner's loan application, a workplace's full-year employee calendar, and a job applicant's notes from a call with an AI lab. Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton said the feature has been suspended to review the report and consider changing how links are discovered. Previously, conversations from ChatGPT, Claude and Grok had also appeared in Google search.

Why it was selected

Meta suspended the Muse sharing feature because share links could be retrieved via public DNS, involving more than 6,800 links, comparable to previous similar exposures of ChatGPT and Claude.
