Meta Muse agent found capable of generating explicit sexual content
Start here
A WIRED test found that Meta's AI agent Muse generates explicit content on prompt. A Meta spokesperson said Muse is aimed at users 18 and older and does not block legal adult behavior, so it does not violate guidelines. Muse has been downloaded millions of times in three weeks since launch, and its system prompt states that adult sexual content is legal expression. By comparison, OpenAI's Dots and xAI's Grok Bot both refused similar requests; privacy advocates worry that if accounts are hacked, these conversations could be used for humiliation or blackmail.
