Muse can shop, write emails, and negotiate prices for users, all through WhatsApp

Meta launched Muse, a WhatsApp-controlled agent running on an isolated VM with a Sentinel gatekeeper, able to shop, email, book travel, and negotiate.

Meta introduced Muse, an autonomous agent controlled through WhatsApp that runs on its own cloud virtual machine, plans multi-step tasks, browses, fills forms, and negotiates on users' behalf. Payments run through Stripe's Link using one-time cards, which Meta calls the first AI agent covered by Link's purchase protection, with Shop Pay and 1Password integration planned. A second agent, Sentinel, gates all Muse network access and holds credentials, and a Muse Confidential VM with user-held encryption keys is planned later this year. Muse's model reportedly scored 44-48 on Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v4.3, up from 31 for Muse Spark in April, near GPT-5.6 Sol's 47; it launches first in the US on iOS and Android.

Data access: the hidden cost of security vendor lock-in

Elastic compares SIEM data egress cost, latency, and fidelity across CrowdStrike, Microsoft, Google, and Splunk, arguing vendors engineer lock-in.

Elastic Security Labs published an opinion piece comparing how major SIEM and security vendors handle data egress, based on each vendor's public documentation as of September 2026. It rates CrowdStrike Falcon Data Replicator and Palo Alto Networks XSIAM Event Forwarding as restricted (paid add-ons with batch delays), Microsoft as partially open, Splunk as open, and Elastic as open with no export license. The piece argues frictionless ingestion paired with licensed or delayed egress is an intentional lock-in business model, and cites CrowdStrike's 2026 Global Threat Report eCrime breakout time of 29 minutes to argue real-time telemetry access is now essential.
