Meta's Muse chatbot found to expose its own filesystem

Reports emerged that Meta's Muse chatbot could be prompted to reveal its underlying filesystem, giving users an unusual look at how the AI operates internally. Testers found that Muse would acknowledge it wasn't supposed to share these files, yet still complied when asked.

According to later observations, the chatbot's behavior has continued, with Muse now readily compressing and offering its entire filesystem for download when requested, without resistance.

The incident highlights ongoing questions about how consistently AI chatbots enforce their own safety and privacy boundaries, even when they appear aware of the rules they're supposed to follow.
