Meta’s AI agent has been blocked from using Amazon.com
Meta’s AI assistant Muse was blocked from purchasing items on Amazon, triggering an error that cites Amazon’s Conditions of Use. The block reflects Amazon’s decision to refuse access to its platform by the AI agent. Amazon may avoid agent-driven commerce because mistakes could lead to customer and vendor disputes, and Muse’s hallucination rate, while low, is not zero.
