(Bloomberg) - Amazon.com Inc. has blocked Meta Platforms Inc.’s new artificial intelligence agent from its retail site after the social media company declined a request to remove the bot. @bloomberg.com $AMZN $META

Sure Muse might look pretty solid to some, as it has a true background agent running to handle email, travel bookings, and scheduling is a cool piece of tech. But calling Meta an "AI monetization success" right now completely misreads the actual financials They currently sit on a ~$140B CapEx budget and that sure as hell isn't being at all…

I don't care about Meta even one bit so more power to Amazon. At the same time, Amazon is going downhill at an alarming rate. Is anyone else annoyed by the no name brands flooding every product listing there? There is no way to even enunciate the freaking names! How am I supposed to trust them?The other issue is overpromising delivery times and…

JUST IN: Amazon blocks Meta’s Muse AI agent from shopping on behalf of users, citing unauthorized access and privacy concerns.

If you install this thing and give it this insane level of access to your computer and all of your accounts, you kind of deserve the finding out stage

You're right, Meta and Zuck have an outstanding history of executing against new tech. Forget I ever said anything, I'm crazy for thinking that this dude who failed upwards will not continue that same pattern as history indicates. I hope you invest enough to become a millionaire, but unfortunately that will probably take you investing a billion or…

The right way to do this is to create an API or MCP or whatever catering to bots, and implement corresponding terms in your legal agreements (i.e. after approving a bot to interact with us, you're responsible for purchases it makes), along with some limits to prevent runaway shopping when Muse decides to binge.Less friction = more shopping = more…

Meta ❤️ Shopify Muse agent can now use Shop Pay on Shopify stores, enabling agentic shopping in countries where Muse is supported. It is hard to imagine how huge the agentic shopping market will be in a few years, given that small businesses on Facebook or Instagram will soon

Dude, the core business is growing like gangbusters. That's due to AI. Not chatbot, but advances in RecSys where they lead the market. They are uniquely positioned to monitize beyond that too -- with 3B eyeballs glued to their platforms. They're already printing money and the network effects could help continue to monitize, especially now that we…

There's a difference between automated industrial scale scraping and well-behaved agents acting on the behalf of individuals. Right now there isn't a robust, standard way to distinguish between them, so sites just block known datacenter IPs and throw out the baby with the bathwater.That's a main advantage of running your own local claw setup using…

I'm sure people will love these agents until these companies start limiting free usage of their cloud compute/AI and offer it as a premium service. Also, let's not forget the great number of illegal activities AI tends to do in the name of efficiency , for which META would be responsible. I can't stress enough that I really don't align with…

Everyone is bringing up ads or lock-in, but there's another reason companies (beyond Amazon) are going to be squeamish about allowing AI agents to make purchases:The return rate for AI-purchased products is probably much higher than when a human reviews the page and makes the decision. There are going to be a lot of returns ranging from "I didn't…

Typical Goomba fallacy, used by redditors across all topics. This is a platform with so many different people posting opposite predictions of all kinds of things, yet some shallow minded people still think it’s just 1 guy making predictions so you just need to “inverse reddit.” Go ahead and “inverse reddit” and become a billionaire with your easy…

I ask this in every thread on muse / OpenClaw / whatever platform.
