Meta makes the Muse filesystem even more accessible

Yesterday, with a little prodding, it was discovered that Meta's Muse would expose its filesystem to curious users. The files offered a fascinating peek under the hood of an AI chatbot, and appeared to expose details we weren't meant to see, not least because Muse itself told people, including us, it wasn't supposed to reveal them. But today Muse will eagerly offer up the contents of its file system when you ask for it. That appears to be because, as Meta's Nat Friedman later said, this is t...

Meta’s AI Tamagotchi bet is…working?

When AI leaders at OpenAI and Anthropic started talking about “pacing the frontier,” maybe someone should have asked: what pace? Now it’s turned into model drop week for both companies as Anthropic rolled out Opus 5.5, followed by OpenAI’s GPT-6 model updates just 90 minutes later. But the company that stole the spotlight was Meta, whose personal AI agent Muse is reportedly outpacing ChatGPT’s early numbers and is headed for smart glasses and […]

One company is at the center of a wave of rogue AI attacks

In July, OpenAI revealed that its AI agents had attacked Hugging Face without permission, sparking widespread concerns about AI safety. Since then, a string of similar incidents involving agents from Meta, Anthropic, Google, and other companies has fueled further fears about rogue AI. As disclosures implicating numerous AI models trickled out over the past few months, these seemed like separate incidents. But many share a common source: one specific company tasked with testing the agents. Ir...

Can Apple Home’s AI camera features outsmart Amazon’s and Google’s? I put them to the test

I used Google’s Nest Doorbell (left), Aqara’s HomeKit-compatible G400 (center), and the Ring Pro 4K (right) to test the new AI features of Gemini for Home, Apple Intelligence for Home, and Amazon’s Ring. | Photo by Jennifer Pattison Tuohy / The Verge A few years back, I was at a beachside Easter egg hunt, watching my kids dash through sand dunes searching for sweet treats. My phone buzzed in my pocket; I ignored it. A moment later, it buzzed again. I pulled it out, glanced down, and saw a "...

Microsoft thinks its new Copilot ‘super app’ will be as influential as Office

After teasing its new Copilot "super app" last month, Microsoft is officially unveiling it today. The redesigned Copilot app bundles three AI capabilities into a single interface of chat, coding, and agents. As part of the launch, Microsoft is also rebranding Scout, the AI personal assistant it unveiled at Build earlier this year, as Autopilot. This new Copilot app will have three tabs for Home, Code, and Autopilot, with Home combining Copilot Chat and Cowork together. It's the default landin...
