Meta’s Muse AI Agent Expands to Online Shopping

Meta has launched Muse, an AI agent that it says can help with tasks ranging from sending emails to buying items online, according to The Verge. The publication’s article is by Stevie Bonifield.

The Verge says Muse can be effective at carrying out those tasks, but using it means trusting Meta with your data and giving the agent access to your credit card. The source does not provide further details about how that access works.

Meta has also announced plans for a Tamagotchi-like Muse Charm device featuring its cuddly AI mascot. The source describes the plans but gives no release date or other specifications for the device.

The Verge’s page is a running account of news and updates about Muse. Its summary does not give a launch date for the AI agent.
