alt Hacker Newsyes, it was not easy to mentally give that access, but then I heard from friends how much work was put in into securing it and separating LLM/agents from the API tokens access (also saw this detailed blog post from the lead developer - https://research.meta.ai/blog/security-and-safety-for-ai-age...), plus I had the pressure to get the problem resolved - so I decided to risk and try it out.
Eventually, though, Muse Confidential VM is an even more locked-in option coming, per that blog post...
Ah, your concern was about an LLM messing something up, vs. about becoming a (tiny tiny) piece of training data for Zucky / getting slightly more targeted ads (or price discriminated against or something in the future)?
Mm, I see a small note on the second half of a bullet ( https://about.fb.com/news/2026/09/introducing-muse-personal-... ) that you can opt out of training. I know I’m a privacy weirdo since this didn’t make the FAQ in the OP:
Guess you can opt out on the free tier? (I’m not much [read: at all] trusting of the company but I know many are fine either way.) Not saying I’m happy about having my emails on Google’s servers btw or would be comfortable connecting email to Anthropic/OpenAI.Wonder if opting out of training means they’d avoid using information gleaned from our emails to better serve their advertisers. Without knowing I guess I’d be concerned about even correspondents of mine using the service.
