In a span of 24 hours, Meta faced a significant security challenge as its new Muse personal AI agent came under scrutiny. Mark Zuckerberg had previously touted the agent's privacy and security features, including a dedicated Secure VM and a monitoring system called Sentinel. The company also offered bug bounty rewards up to $300,000 to ensure the agent's robustness.
