How new Meta AI agent Muse differs from chatbots

Meta is announcing its latest artificial intelligence tools and smart glasses at its annual showcase on Wednesday. CNET AI reporter Katelyn Chedraoui joins CBS News to discuss.

Meta is expanding its Meta glasses with the addition of its Muse AI agent. The announcement was made at the company's annual Connect conference in Menlo Park, California. Muse, which launched earlier this month, has quickly gained popularity in the App Store, surpassing rivals like ChatGPT. By integrating Muse into the glasses, Meta aims to provide users with a more convenient way to manage daily tasks and maintain healthy habits.

The AI agent is capable of browsing the web, making calls, shopping, and handling other responsibilities. Meta is also partnering with companies like Shopify, PayPal, Expedia, and Instacart to enhance the functionality of Muse. However, the AI agent faces competition from startups like Instinct, an invite-only personal AI assistant.

Amazon has blocked Muse from its shopping site, indicating that some businesses may not be as receptive to AI agents as users. Meta plans to upgrade the AI experience on its glasses in the coming weeks, and the company expects to launch over 100 styles of audio glasses and a VR device by the end of the year.
