In a completely unsurprising turn of events, Meta's Muse AI is stealing Apple Messages, past and present, and uploading the contents to its cloud, even if explicitly told not to. By @Amber_M_Neely appleinsider.com/articles/26…

Opus 5.5 designing LEGO 👀 I asked it to design a Microduck I can build with real LEGO pieces. It: > designed it life-size using 1113 real LEGO parts > verified: 3,204 connections, 0 collisions, every step buildable, centre of mass inside the feet 🤯 > made a 141-page LEGO-style booklet (237 steps) > priced every piece in the browser and prepared the orders on BrickLink

Please don't install - it's trivial to turn Muse into the ultimate backdoor 💀👀 Ya, as an AI assistant built to manage your Mac, Muse needs broad access to your digital life. But serious 0-day flaw(s) can let local malware/attackers invisibly hijack it. Let me show you. 🧵

Authenticator support in Instinct Instinct can now securely and seamlessly handle the “enter your 6-digit authenticator code” step for you. It uses the same time-based one-time password (TOTP) standard as Authy, Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, and other popular authenticator platforms. Once an account’s authenticator is set up in Vault, your agent can generate and enter its verification codes to unblock itself on your task. 37% of users store at least one account password in Vault within their first three weeks. A lot of everyday work happens behind a login. However, even with your password saved, an authenticator prompt can mean stopping the task, opening an app on your phone, and sending over a code before it expires. Instinct can now handle that step and keep working. On supported services, Instinct can complete the enrollment and save the details alongside your login in Vault. You may need to approve the initial sign-in or an existing security check. Where a service allows an additional authenticator, you can keep using the one on your phone. Once setup is complete, Instinct can use its own saved key to generate codes for future sign-ins. Phone approvals and other security checks may still need your input. Authenticator support is another step toward giving Instinct the tools it needs to complete tasks on your behalf in the real world, with fewer interruptions along the way. This is available across all of our users today.
