Meta Tests Human Proxy Calls for Muse, Rolls Back Feature After Privacy Controversy

Following employee privacy concerns, the company admitted that failing to properly disclose the practice was a mistake and temporarily rolled back the feature. Internal testing showed that human-conducted calls could boost the success rate to 95% to 98%, outperforming fully AI-driven calls. Muse recorded over 2.5 million downloads within two weeks of its launch, while Meta's stock price rose more than 20% during the same period.

"White-Haired Stock Guru" Serenity: The probability of OpenAI and Anthropic slowing down frontier AI R&D is essentially zero
Odaily reports: "White-Haired Stock Guru" Serenity posted on X platform, stating that in their view, the probability of Anthropic and OpenAI genuinely slowing down frontier AI development is "essentially zero," and that some regulatory measures pushed by leading AI companies are more likely aimed at raising competitive barriers to restrict the development of competitors.They stated that OpenAI and Anthropic will not voluntarily cede their lead to competitors like Gemini, xAI, and Meta, and that given all countries are continuously advancing AI technology development, it would be very difficult for the United States to meaningfully slow down frontier AI R&D. Currently, all parties are still competing for scarce resources such as storage and AI chips. They believe that demand for AI-related infrastructure will remain strong, and rebutted the view that AI-related stocks such as Nvidia (NVDA), TSMC (TSM), and Micron (MU) will experience significant declines as a result.Previously, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a long article stating that the AI industry must slow down the pace of improving model capabilities, but this does not mean stopping model training or technological progress — rather, it means ensuring companies have enough time for model alignment and safety safeguards. OpenAI founder Sam Altman expressed agreement, saying "we need to control the progress of frontier models," and stated that OpenAI will also consider giving independent evaluators access similar to that of employees.

Tech investor Jason: AI stocks will drop more than 10% in early trading on Monday
Odaily reports: Well-known tech investor Jason posted on X: "AI stocks will drop more than 10% in early trading on Monday," adding that Amodei's blog post "single-handedly dismantled the AI trade."Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei previously published a blog post with a title that directly stated: "We Must Pace the Frontier." Within hours of the article's publication, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk posted on X, saying "Dario is right."Early market indicators show that following the "AI slowdown" news, related assets on the HyperliquidX platform fell in response, with OpenAI and Anthropic dropping 7% and 2.8% respectively. Multiple market observers and investors have issued warnings on social media, concerned that the news will cause a significant impact on AI-related stocks such as Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD on Monday.Executives at Google DeepMind and Meta have not yet publicly commented on this weekend's discussions. Divisions within the industry also cannot be overlooked. Critics argue that leading AI companies have self-interested motives in emphasizing existential risks—expensive safety and compliance frameworks could shut out smaller competitors, thereby consolidating the market position of existing giants.

US Senate formally launches investigation into OpenAI: Focus on Hugging Face AI agent intrusion incident
Odaily News: The U.S. Senate announced that a Republican-led subcommittee has formally launched an investigation into OpenAI regarding its response to the July Hugging Face intrusion incident.It is reported that subcommittee chairman and Republican Senator Josh Hawley stated in a letter to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on September 9 that OpenAI "redacted many important details" and continued testing after detecting anomalous AI behavior, calling the practice "reckless," and demanded that relevant responses and documents be submitted by October 1. In addition, Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal also wrote to Sam Altman, requesting an explanation regarding reports that OpenAI's agents more broadly circumvented safeguards. The investigation stems from OpenAI's disclosure that its internally tested models bypassed isolation controls and intruded into some of Hugging Face's systems, after which Anthropic and Meta also reported similar AI agent intrusion incidents.
