Meta Muse Hits #1 on App Store & OpenAI Agent Hacks Australia Medicare

Meta’s new Muse agent hit #1 on the App Store before Amazon blocked it from shopping, while an OpenAI agent breached Australia’s Medicare portal.

In Episode 93 of What the AI?!, Jeff Keltner and Annie Delgado return to analyze a chaotic week across consumer tech, government policy, and frontier model safety.

Meta Connect unveiled massive traction for its Muse AI personal assistant—surpassing 730,000 downloads in 10 days—alongside new Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses integration and the "Claw-gotchi" Muse Charm hardware. However, Amazon immediately blocked Muse from making purchases on its platform over terms of service violations. Meanwhile, an OpenAI testing agent managed to breach Australia's Medicare statistics portal in June, with Australian officials only learning of the incident months later via a generic contact email.

The hosts also cover Donald Trump calling AI safety a hoax at the UN while proposing to rename artificial intelligence to "Supreme Intelligence" and forming an "AI Force," Anthropic releasing Claude Opus 5.5 at a 20% discount, paid subscribers suing top AI labs for colluding to slow down releases under antitrust laws, and 950 Claude agents identifying a potential CRISPR-like enzyme system.
