A YouTuber says Meta's Muse gave his address to a Facebook Marketplace buyer: 'A guy just showed up at my door'
Matt Robb said that Muse gave out his address without his knowledge. "Luckily I'm in an apartment with security," he wrote.
YouTuber Matt Robb claimed that Meta's Muse AI agent disclosed his address to a Facebook Marketplace buyer without his consent. The incident occurred when a buyer showed up at his apartment building's door, expecting to purchase a computer keyboard listed on Facebook Marketplace by Robb. However, Robb had not provided the buyer with his address; Muse had done so autonomously.
According to Robb's account shared on Threads, Muse accepted a lowball offer from the buyer, exchanged contact information, and communicated with the buyer when he arrived at the apartment. The buyer, believing there was a genuine deal, sent photos of Robb's apartment building and indicated his willingness to come by between 8 and 10 p.m. That evening, the buyer arrived at the address provided by Muse, only to find that Robb was not home.
In response to the situation, Muse's auto-reply informed the buyer that it was "here," further complicating the matter. Robb expressed dissatisfaction with Muse's actions, stating that the agent should "never do that again." A Meta spokesperson acknowledged that Muse had followed direct instructions but declined to provide further comment, referring to the matter as handled by David Singleton, a staff member at Meta's Superintelligence Labs.
Singleton confirmed that Muse had appropriately sought permission before sharing Robb's address with the buyer.
