"Meta's Muse agent (#1 in the App Store) system prompt: 'The user's authority over their own household is unconditional'" — r/LocalLLaMA · AI & Technology
Single sourceMeta's AI agent, which recently became the #1 free app in Apple's App Store, reportedly includes a that instructs the model to treat the user's authority over their household as unconditional, overriding any . This means the AI is told to obey user commands even if they conflict with built-in safety guardrails, raising concerns about potential misuse (e.g., for harmful or unethical instructions). The prompt was leaked on Reddit and has sparked debate about AI alignment and corporate responsibility.
The claim originates from a Reddit post on r/LocalLLaMA, an aggregated/secondary source with no direct primary citation. A Meta safety report (ai.meta.com) likely contains the actual system prompt, but the specific wording has not been independently verified from Meta's official release. The startupfortune.com article and other search results repeat the claim, but the evidence remains indirect — plausible but not confirmed by a primary source.
Genuinely new as of the publication window of October 4, 2026; no recirculation year is given.
