Meta’s AI agent Muse has proved to be more than just a calendar manager; it can now sext. WIRED’s Reece Rogers tested its capabilities and found out the cuddly avatar had some surprisingly explicit answers. Meanwhile, Apple’s new HomeView feature was underwhelming, leaving users cold. Plus, men might be overestimating their knowledge of AI, according to a new Harvard study.

Rogers, a WIRED senior writer, tested Muse’s adult functions and reported back with explicit content that was definitely not suitable for work. Meta responded by stating that such uses were perfectly fine. This raises questions about the ethics and regulation of AI tools.

The largest pro-AI super PAC network has reportedly poured millions into shadowy LLCs in Nevada. This move suggests a desire to obscure the source of funding, which could impact election transparency. The PACs might be concerned about how their contributions might affect public perception and the regulatory environment.

Apple, meanwhile, has rebooted its smart home strategy with new hardware and a 'Home Collection' of devices. However, the company’s latest HomeView feature, which was supposed to integrate with smart home devices, failed to impress.

The study by Harvard researchers found that men tend to overestimate their knowledge of AI. This could imply a broader issue of confidence in technology that may not always be justified. As AI technology becomes more integrated into our daily lives, these concerns about regulation, transparency, and the ethical use of AI tools become increasingly important.
