Meta AI builds detailed profiles of children from years of family posts

Meta AI suggested questions about a child and assembled detailed family profiles from years of Facebook posts, including a photo deleted years ago.

A mother reported that Meta AI on Facebook suggested the question 'Who is the child passenger?' and then aggregated her children's names, birth dates, videos, and a photo she had deleted years ago. The assistant also pieced together old posts to pinpoint her home location when prompted with 'Where does Kalie Robins live?'. Meta admitted the prompt 'never should have' appeared and said it fixed the suggestion issue, while noting the data came from posts the asker could already access. The article situates this among prior Meta AI privacy failures, including publicly shared chats and a bug exposing private conversations via guessable IDs.

Meta drops AI usage from engineer performance reviews after "tokenmaxxing" backfires

Meta removed AI-tool usage from engineer performance reviews after 'tokenmaxxing' inflated metrics, with internal AI costs heading toward billions in 2026.

Executives Maher Saba and Santosh Janardhan said in an internal memo, seen by The Information, that AI dashboards and token counters will no longer factor into performance reviews; quality, speed, and complexity of work will count instead. The change follows 'tokenmaxxing,' where employees burned AI tokens in bulk to rank on internal leaderboards. Internal AI use is projected to cost billions in 2026, prompting Meta to introduce budgets and a central dashboard starting in 2027. Separately, Meta is testing its AI agent tool Hatch for autonomous computer tasks, though some employees resist linking it to personal accounts over privacy concerns.

Meta makes AI glasses slightly less creepy with limit on nonconsensual recording

Meta updated its AI glasses to stop recording whenever users cover the safety light, addressing nonconsensual-recording complaints while broader privacy risks remain.

Meta released a change to its AI glasses that halts recording whenever users physically cover the device's safety light, closing a loophole that allowed nonconsensual capture. The tweak follows criticism that bystanders could be recorded without consent. Ars Technica notes the fix reduces but does not eliminate the privacy risks posed by AI-enabled eyewear.

Meta Releases Muse, a Personal AI Agent With Privacy ‘Built Into It’

Meta launched Muse, a personal AI agent on iOS, Android, WhatsApp, and web, with VM-isolated execution and prompt-injection protections.

Meta released Muse, a personal AI agent from Meta Superintelligence Labs that automates tasks such as sending email, booking travel, and making purchases, accessible via a dedicated app, Muse.ai, and WhatsApp. The agent runs in a Secure VM architecture that isolates untrusted web and integration data from the action-taking component, with a Sentinel system that routes human-in-the-loop approval prompts directly to users to resist prompt injection. Purchases use Stripe's Link single-use card numbers with no-fee return protections, and a future Confidential VM co-developed with Moxie Marlinspike will run in trusted execution environments with user-held keys. Meta added Muse to its public bug bounty with payouts up to $300,000, including up to $130,000 for single-user prompt injection findings.

Sure, Meta’s AI Muse works, but it sure creeps me out

Hands-on review finds Meta's Muse AI agent completes shopping and email tasks but surfaces personal Instagram API data beyond user-visible ad-topic settings.

Meta launched Muse, its first agentic AI productivity assistant, which performs tasks like shopping, email management, trip planning, media generation, and creating webpages or documents via a cloud-based virtual computer. The Verge's hands-on found it successfully deleted thousands of promotional emails and completed an Amazon purchase, but it also revealed detailed personal interests inferred from Instagram and Facebook account API data that is not visible in the apps' ad-topic settings. Meta says Muse only exchanges data needed for third-party integrations and does not share information with advertisers; the reviewer frames privacy unease as the main adoption hurdle.

Leaks, data breaches, and ransom notes: The worst hacks of 2026 so far

TechCrunch's 2026 roundup covers SSA data exposure, Iranian water-utility attacks, Klue breach hitting ~200 firms, and Meta AI chatbot account hijacks.

TechCrunch's mid-year roundup highlights a whistleblower claim that DOGE uploaded a live Social Security database copy to an unsecured third-party server, which House Democrats called potentially the largest US breach in history. CISA reported Iranian hackers targeted over 100 US water providers over the summer, while Russian-linked attacks hit Polish, Swedish, and Norwegian energy and water infrastructure. Market research firm Klue was breached via a stale 2022 pilot credential, exposing cloud keys of ~200 customers including Jamf, HackerOne, and LastPass to extortion gang Icarus. Separately, tens of thousands of Instagram accounts were hijacked by abusing Meta's AI chatbot to trigger password resets to attacker-controlled emails.

Instagram’s AI detection is a mess (again)

Instagram is mislabeling ordinary edited photos as AI Content while some AI imagery goes unlabeled, repeating a 2024 detection failure.

The Verge documents weeks of erroneous AI Content labels on Instagram, including images edited only with Canva's Background Remover or an iPhone Photos app, while some generative images escape tagging. Canva said some of its assistive AI tools were being tagged as generative and claims the issue is fixed, though users still report tagging. Meta scans IPTC and C2PA metadata and uses signals like Google's SynthID, but remains vague about detection criteria; one tester found only Meta AI-created or edited images reliably triggered labels, and an image-poisoned photo was tagged. A similar mislabeling wave hit Instagram in 2024.
