Meta's Muse is being questioned as "OpenClaw for regular people." When asked to self-inspect, Muse was found to use the same filenames and directory structure as OpenClaw, with some core content highly similar.
Muse lead Nat Friedman responded that Muse was built from scratch, but acknowledged the product was deeply inspired by OpenClaw, aiming to make personal agents safer, easier to use, and serve billions of users.
