PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Meta is pushing the agent from the chat window down to the hardware layer, and ESP32 and Raspberry Pi are only the starting point. Opening the SDK means third-party devices can connect to Muse, and the agent could become a new device control hub. But the documentation openly admits security risks, and developers must bear the risk of bricking and attacks themselves.
