> When shopping, a one-time card number is generated at checkout so your real card is never seen by the merchant or your agent. That's sensible. Hopefully you can set a spending limit too? I'd be OK giving my agent a $100 limit.

Re: Muse – Meta’s personal AI agent
#132> A personal AI agent can help with everyday tasks like booking reservations, monitoring prices, managing reminders, creating documents, generating images, and researching topics. Always the same thing. I wish product designers would have some modicum of imagination for how agents can actually help people. Literally none of these examples are improved by this kind of personal AI agent; on the contrary, it means letti…
My AI agent decided with the Ticketmaster agent that since I couldn't get the tickets to the show I really wanted, I'd instead attend a show they haven't sold very many tickets for as it's a bit of a drive. I forgot to charge my AI agent's loyalty this week and it fell below the threshold of trustworthiness so it struck this awful deal. It's stipulated that I attend or I risk even further matrix degradation of my agent in the agentweb. I even spent all last week providing my AI agent with RealTestimonials about various consumer products for the streams but apparently they want you to manually charge it every week and you have to have a full package of tokens, you can't partially charge your agent even just to break a threshold on its behavior matrix.

#134Facebook is the first to market with a polished openclaw? Good for them. I'm sure many others will criticize other aspects of Meta, and rightly so. But imagine using a Claw agent with zero tech support available

Re: Muse – Meta’s personal AI agent
#135I have a hard time understanding, given the abundance of bad faith and predatory behavior Meta has displayed over entire span of its existence, why anyone would want to consult with its "personal AI" or grant it access to "all aspects of your life".
I had that conversation several times with friends outside of tech. The universal reaction is just a shrug - "my life is boring, what do they care". And yes, you can counter with a hypothetical about a future totalitarian police state, or evil hackers, or whatever, but that makes you sound crazy. In practice, it's a trade-off most people are comfortable making because they can't think of anything that some trillion-d…

Immigration agencies are absolutely monitoring social media when people cross borders, apply for visas, etc. There's nothing hypothetical or future about this at all.

#136I love how the marketing departments of these things always imagine people are just constantly plagued by the hassle of organising their flights, restaurant bookings and movie tickets
these are all tarpit ideas
i've gone on many trips before, and one of the most fun parts of it is doing the actual planning and finding stuff
i'd much rather AI do the boring shit, like when it comes to insurance with multiple parties and service providers involved that don't talk to each other at all, making things 10x more complicated than they need to be

#137I guess now we know who bought the name from museapp
https://allume.com/memos/2026-07-allume-v4/
Seems like they changed names internally from "Hatch" (some UI still uses hatch instead of muse)

#138Earlier quoted context omitted.
To be fair it is a pain in the ass… but i'm sure having an AI do it would make things worse :D
The average person is not using a calendar and is not getting more than 1 relevant personal email per week. Most people use their personal email extremely sparingly and it is inundated with promotional / account-related materials which are already handled rather deftly by most mainstream email providers
Ha, tell me you don't have children without...

i think product just uses these use cases as their example demos and then when they show it to marketing theyre like "OK I guess this is what it's for".
(at least, this is what ive seen)
Re: Muse – Meta’s personal AI agent
#140I can't say it doesn't make sense. Who still loves Facebook? Older people. Who loves chatbots? Old people too. Not _just_ old people of course, but this genuinely might be the first new tech I've seen which has been so easily and quickly welcomed by those a generation or two older than me.
