Meta is banking its future on its Muse AI agent — and winning user trust

Meta (META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg laid out his vision for the company's future during its Meta Connect conference on Wednesday, and it's all about Muse. The social media giant's new AI agent has quickly jumped to the top of both Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store, and, according to Zuckerberg, millions of people are using it. During Connect, Meta chief AI officer Alexandr Wang demonstrated a number of use cases for Muse, ranging from the mundane, like scheduling meetings, to more impressive feats like negotiating better rates for cable service and making purchases across multiple services. Meta is also bringing Muse to its next-generation Meta VR Glasses, allowing you to speak to a digital avatar of your agent, as well as to its Muse Charm.
