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.

My work said last month that we need to use more AI. This week, they said to use the cheapest model and be more conservative. They also say to not trust the output without verifying it. Okay, then, wouldn't it be faster if I just did the work myself? And more accurate.

    ikr?

    All the big tech companies are pushing AI into everything to pump their "growth" story, but it's mostly shit.

    Still useful, granted; for example, yesterday I needed a complex spill formula in Excel to de-aggregate a delineated list of data (in one column) while preserving (repeating) all other key data in the rows. I could have figured it out manually, but I used AI. It got it completely wrong, multiple times, but I was eventually able to parse out three Excel functions I'd never used before to make it happen, mostly with my own code since the AI fucked it up so badly.

    But I doubt I could do it again by hand today, let alone in a few weeks/months. So, it saved me some time but at the cost of my learning new skills.

    I think my use case yesterday is very indicative of the economic value of AI; it can help experts do small tasks faster, at the cost of long term learning. It has some value, but only like 1% of the value relative to its market valuation.

    I can't wait for it to crash and burn. The longer this house of cards keeps growing, the worse the crash is going to be.
