Zuck accelerated Muse launch in response to Instinct.

According to three sources speaking to The New York Times, Meta had withheld Muse from public release for months over safety concerns. But when the competing AI agent started taking off in Silicon Valley circles, Mark Zuckerberg reportedly called in his top AI lieutenants to discuss the threat: > “Fearful of losing a competitive edge, Mr. Zuckerberg said Muse was ready to launch despite the risks.” The gamble seems to have paid off, this time.
