Meta’s new Muse agent can clear mail and buy tank tops — and it also recited Instagram interests the reviewer couldn’t see in the app’s own ad-topics UI.
A pre-training researcher walks out of Anthropic — and the citeable story is coordination failure: the race is still stoppable now, but agency plus margin math is closing the window.

Days after an $18 billion multistate settlement over social harms, Meta asks consumers to connect email, calendars, payments, and apps to a free-to-start agent that acts on their behalf.
After billions spent overhauling an ailing AI position, Meta is pitching Muse as the mass-market agent—ease of use and a privacy story—against OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google.
NVIDIA opens two official Rust paths to native PTX kernels—SIMT via cuda-oxide and Tile via cutile-rs—betting the AI systems stack will keep migrating to Rust.
