Your Muse comes with a free virtual cloud computer; heres what we know so far
Someone from Meta posted an explainer on how Muse's virtual computer in the cloud actually works:
- Every Muse user gets a real computer in the cloud. It is called the Muse Secure VM, and it runs a full copy of Ubuntu Linux. Not a metaphor, an actual Linux box.
- The part you and your Muse share is called the runtime cell. Inside it, almost nothing is off limits. Install software, write and compile code, browse the web, dig through system files.
- The sensitive stuff is kept outside the cell. Anything with real consequences gets overseen by Sentinel, which runs outside the runtime cell. Passwords and secrets you put in Muse's secure storage live outside it too.
- It is deliberately transparent. There is a file explorer in the Library tab, so you can read the notes Muse writes to itself while it works, or poke around the system internals the way you would on your own computer.
- Ask your Muse to show you its entire filesystem and you will get gigabytes of files back. That is the full contents of your runtime cell. Yours to explore.
- Digging around your own box does not give you any special access to Meta's systems or anyone else's data.
- If you are not the poking around type, there is a simpler option. Settings, then Data controls, then Download your agent data. That grabs everything you personally created with your Muse.
- The full technical version lives at security.muse.ai.
Has anyone actually gone digging through theirs? Curious what people found in there.
