Meta never talks about automating jobs — Muse 'does stuff for you', not 'work for you'
willcb · x · 2026-09-28
Developer willcb observes that Meta never frames its AI around automating labor or replacing jobs. He points to the telling wording around Muse: it doesn't "do work for you" — it "does stuff for you." The distinction reflects Meta's careful positioning of the product as an assistant rather than a replacement, avoiding the job-displacement anxieties other AI vendors lean into.
