Meta's Muse AI agent is very powerful — but not enough to overcome my kids' annoying school apps
I spent a week trying out Meta's Muse AI agent, giving it access to my email, credit cards, and even Apple health data.
Meta's Muse AI agent is a powerful personal assistant that can help with various tasks, such as organizing your inbox and finding travel essentials. In a week-long test, I gave Muse access to my email, credit cards, and even Apple health data. While Muse excelled at some tasks, like creating a daily email digest, it struggled with school-related responsibilities.
For instance, planning a kid's birthday party at a trampoline park and managing school notifications were areas where Muse fell short. Despite these limitations, Muse's easy-to-use interface and straightforward AI agent made it an appealing option for personal use. However, the idea of granting Meta access to sensitive data, such as health information and financial details, is concerning.
I ultimately decided that while Muse has potential, it's not enough to overcome my apprehensions about sharing my personal information with Meta.
