Meta pauses Muse chat sharing after public links found

Meta has paused the sharing feature in its Muse AI assistant after security firm Claroc found shared chats publicly searchable. Claroc says it found more than 6,800 share links through public DNS records, which it describes as a directory for web traffic. Some exposed chats included a marketing company's revenue review, a loan application and a workplace's staff calendar. Meta says it is reviewing the report and considering changes to how the links can be discovered.

Why it matters: If your team uses an AI assistant's share links, treat them as public until your provider confirms a fix. Keep client finances and staff details out of shared chats.
