The band Muse has surrendered its Instagram and X handles to Meta after the release of its new AI agent, Muse.
The English rock band Muse has been renamed on Instagram and X from “Muse” to “museband.”
Despite the band Muse having had its Instagram account since 2012 and its X account since 2008, it has seemingly surrendered the handle to Mark Zuckerberg’s newest AI agent.
That's fair. Still, I do think it's a tad unreasonable to expect of people, when it can significantly impact their popularity and thus their income, when the actual effect of them leaving is usually that... essentially nothing happens to the company they're leaving from.
Unfortunately, Facebook and its users likely won't care much if someone leaves the platform, as long as they can keep scrolling. It's gotta be on a very large scale, with a lot of people giving up portions of their audience before more people start genuinely moving to alternatives.
