Meta Muse Enters Enterprise AI -- but Data Access Questions Follow

Meta has hired a former MongoDB CEO to build an enterprise AI platform and launched Muse for Small Business, an AI agent that integrates with Box, Figma, and Shopify. The move puts Meta in direct competition with established enterprise AI players -- and it's already drawing scrutiny.
