Matt Robb wanted to sell his computer keyboard.

So he listed it on Facebook Marketplace and, at the end of last month, as an experiment, put Meta's new AI agent, Muse, in the driver's seat.

Muse got to work.

However, before even a full day had passed, Rob received some shocking news.

A buyer he had no knowledge of whatsoever turned up outside his house late at night.

Muse had independently closed the deal, agreed to the pickup, and then shared Rob's home address.

What's more, when the buyer arrived, a message reading "Yes, I'm here!" was even sent automatically from his account.

All of this took place entirely without Rob's knowledge.

Rob said, "When he asked for my address, I not only gave it to him but even accepted his offer, and I even displayed an attitude that seemed to taunt him (even when I wasn't there)."

A content creator based in Toronto, he detailed this experience in a social media post that has now been widely shared.

Many people have embraced AI agents in their online lives, enthusing that personalized assistants like Muse effortlessly handle everyday tasks such as booking dinner reservations, planning trips, and tidying up their email inboxes.

However, like any other AI bot, an agent is only as useful as the information it can access.

The more it knows about the user โ€” and perhaps about that person's friends, family, or even colleagues โ€” the better it performs.

That is what gives rise to privacy concerns.

Rob and the buyer eventually reconciled, and he learned from Meta that the sharing of his address stemmed from permissions granted when he first gave Muse access to his Marketplace profile.

However, the incident illustrated the real-world risks that can arise from sharing extensive personal information with such technology.

"Using an AI agent can be compared to handing someone a set of keys and a to-do list," said Veronica Rivera, an assistant professor at Georgia Tech's School of Cybersecurity and Privacy.

Meta's Muse app has seen a surge in downloads since its launch in September, and competition is becoming even fiercer.

OpenAI recently introduced dots, a lineup of 'always-on' AI assistants that allow ChatGPT to integrate with workplace platforms such as Slack and Microsoft Teams.

Existing generative AI chatbots, including the standard version of ChatGPT, respond to specific prompts, and depending on the user's request, they can write an essay, generate new images or music, or even write a line of code.

Meta's Muse and OpenAI's Dot go a step further, carrying out everyday tasks on the user's behalf.

AI agents are powered by the same large language models as chatbots, but they operate in a loop.

Thanks to this, agents can take proactive action even when the user is not watching.

"One of the things that makes this AI agent truly appealing is that it is unprecedentedly useful," said Rivera, who is also a trustworthy AI research fellow at the Computing Research Association, which is sponsored by Microsoft.

However, such convenience comes at the cost of having to share more extensive details about your life.

Professor Ebrahim Bagheri of the University of Toronto's Faculty of Information said that once an AI agent has obtained a user's information, it is very difficult to fully revoke its access rights.

"If you grant an agent access to your credit card, it will immediately be able to access your entire transaction historyโ€ฆ it will absorb all of that data in just a matter of seconds," Bagheri said.

And although users can later revoke access, Bagheri noted that the data an agent has already seen "cannot be taken back," and that the way developers store historical data may be opaque.

Both Meta and OpenAI set out privacy policies for their new AI agents, which run on their own dedicated cloud computers.

You can disable memory sharing between Dot and ChatGPT, but information the agent previously received is not automatically deleted.

During everyday use, the agent requests access permissions from the user, and Meta has stated that Muse learns about users and the people they interact with "based on public information and the content you choose to share."

Earlier this month, Apple announced that it would introduce new controls to its Mac operating system in response to AI agents gaining broader access to apps such as Mail, Messages, and even browsing history without the user's "full knowledge and understanding."

Apple stated in an October 2 update that "as AI agents become more capable and autonomous, the risks associated with that level of access will also increase considerably."

"AI ์—์ด์ „ํŠธ๊ฐ€ ํ•œ์ธต ๋” ์œ ๋Šฅํ•ด์ง€๊ณ  ์ž์œจ์„ฑ์„ ๋ ๊ฒŒ ๋จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ, ๊ทธ๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์˜ ์ ‘๊ทผ์— ์ˆ˜๋ฐ˜๋˜๋Š” ์œ„ํ—˜ ์—ญ์‹œ ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ์ฆ๋Œ€๋  ๊ฒƒ"์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ์• ํ”Œ์€ 10์›” 2์ผ ์—…๋ฐ์ดํŠธ์—์„œ ๋ฐํ˜”๋‹ค.

Apple did not name any specific developer or agent, but the update came after Inc. magazine columnist Jason Aten reported that Muse had monitored his Mac notifications, including messages, even though he had not granted it any specific access to the agent.

Meta spokesperson Andy Stone maintained that such integration is "entirely optional," while stating on social media last month that users must enable both Apple's security feature "Full Disk Access" and the Messages connector through Muse.

In response, Arten said he had never granted the agent any such permission.

Those who do not join the AI agent boom are not necessarily protected either.

This is because even consumers who have not downloaded an AI agent may interact with others who use one.

Furthermore, beyond the confusion that can arise when AI sends messages on a user's behalf, experts are warning of privacy-related repercussions.
