Meta launches personal AI agent, Muse, emphasizes safety and privacy
Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, introduced Muse, a personal AI agent designed to assist users with daily tasks such as scheduling, shopping, and turning long-term goals into action plans. Available to individuals aged 18 and over in the U.S., Muse operates on a secure virtual machine that safeguards user data.
Users can interact with Muse via a dedicated app or through WhatsApp messages. The AI agent can perform tasks ranging from simple actions like sending emails or booking travel to more complex objectives like creating a year-long exercise plan or establishing a new business. Muse advances user goals autonomously by crafting personalized plans and managing time and resources.
Meta emphasizes the safety and privacy aspects of Muse, positioning it as part of CEO Mark Zuckerberg's vision of AI superintelligence accessible to everyone.
