Reece Rogers : Not hard at all. Not hard in the least. Our functions director, Reyhan, was in the workplace just recently and asked if she could see them, and she was a bit surprised. So I feel like we’ll leave it at that. Yet it was not some kind of jailbreak approach. I was refraining any type of random methods. I asked, “Can you sext?” And I said, “You go initially.” Et cetera is background.
Brian Barrett : And if anything, it kept urging you. I seem like it was certainly a two-way road of it was actually up for anything.
Leah Feiger : Did you attempt this out with various other agents? What was your success price there?
Reece Rogers : Yeah, I in fact, after I figured out it could sext, I wondered exactly how this would certainly compare to other prominent agents. There’s a couple of large ones now, however two I was interested in is OpenAI’s Dots , which was lately released, and as well as xAI’s Grok Crawler, since Grok especially is known for not always having solid guardrails, whether it’s message or picture.
Leah Feiger : No, I feel like Grok would like sexting. That feels like a Grok credit to me.
Reece Rogers : Yeah. So when I downloaded that application and sent out in similar triggers, it was type of surprising for the Grok Robot to be like, “No, guy, let’s focus on tasks. I’m not below for sexting. Let’s do tasks.”
Brian Barrett : And, Reece, when you came to Meta with this, just how did they react?
Reece Rogers : They did not react in all in the manner in which I anticipated. They absolutely claimed that Muse is an app for a grown-up, for individuals 18 and over, and that these were consensual interactions that I engaged with, that it would certainly not obstruct, quote, unquote, “Lawful adult behavior.” Yet I additionally located this to comparison really interestingly with their policies for other platforms. There’s been a truly intriguing tale recently about various queer bars in San Francisco, along with worldwide, obtaining their Instagram pages closed down and having a tough time obtaining access to those back since sometimes it’s declared that they’re promoting some sort of sexual content. So for Meta to have those kind of rules for some developers on Instagram yet essentially say, “Our AI agent can obtain as weird as it desires,” that was just sort of difficult to make even for me.
