Amazon says it cut off Meta's Muse AI assistant from accessing Amazon.com to shop for customers. The marketplace operator cited violations of its terms of service, security risks and a lack of merchant consent. The block prevents Muse from completing purchases on users' behalf through Amazon, limiting the new agent's reach into a major commerce platform.
