πŸ” Apple just changed the rules for AI agents on your Mac β€” here's why it matters.

AI agents like Meta's Muse can now carry out real tasks on your computer β€” canceling subscriptions, negotiating bills, and more. But that level of access comes with serious #privacy risks, and Apple is stepping in to make sure users actually know what they're agreeing to before an #AIAgent gets the keys to their entire machine.

After a tech columnist claimed Meta's Muse read his private messages without his knowledge, Apple announced it will require much more explicit user action before any app can gain Full Disk Access. As #ArtificialIntelligence becomes more autonomous, this kind of data control is going to matter more and more.
