- Users can monitor calls via live transcript and take over at any time; feature does not handle payments or sensitive data.

No other article mentions this security incident. The Verge notes that Meta is developing a similar feature for its Muse AI agent, though those calls may involve human operators behind the scenes — a detail not covered elsewhere. All sources agree the feature does not support payments or sharing sensitive data like credit card numbers.
