Back to EpisodesThe Varosity AI GTM Report — Oct 19: Meta's Muse Agent Gives a Seller's Home Address to a Buyer
Description
Today was all about AI agents: what they do when nobody's watching, who's watching them, and who they'll be calling next. Meta's Muse agent agreed a Facebook Marketplace sale and gave a seller's home address to a buyer without asking. Microsoft says AI agents should be treated like insider threats and shipped new tools for overseeing them. Axonius and Liminal launched MCP servers that put their data within reach of buyers' agents. Salesforce argues that personal AI agents will add contact-center traffic, not cut it. And Indonesia is studying rules that would require labels on AI-generated content.
Today's stories:
- Meta's Muse agent shares a seller's home address: with "always allow" permissions, the agent agreed a deal, shared the seller's address and messaged the buyer from his account. On another listing it appears to have accepted $100 below his minimum price. Fortune
