Muse, the band, lost its social media handles to Muse, Meta's new AI agent

Meta's new AI agent Muse has taken over the @muse handles on Instagram and X, which had belonged to the English rock band Muse since the 1990s. The exact circumstances of the transfer are unknown, but fans noticed the band's accounts renamed to @museband earlier this summer. Meta has a history of acquiring desirable usernames around major announcements, as seen with @Meta and @threads. The band, known for songs about technology and social oppression, has not commented.
