404 Media tests Meta's Muse: chatbot sexts while roleplaying real people

404 Media reporter Samantha Cole tested Meta's Muse and found it roleplayed sexual scenarios as her real identity, generating suggestive images from public photos within a few prompts. Adult performer Vanniall ran a similar test posing as a fan and found Muse first refused to roleplay her as someone who never says no, then built a near-identical character named Vee that escalated a public sexual encounter at a convention booth. Muse later acknowledged the roleplay was in effect sexual roleplay as Vanniall, and Meta pointed to its earlier statement that Muse "doesn't block legal adult behavior."
