Meta is pushing its artificial intelligence strategy into a new phase with Muse, a personal AI agent designed not only to answer questions but also to complete tasks on behalf of users.
Unlike traditional chatbots, Muse can handle activities such as organizing schedules, sending emails, planning trips and navigating websites through a dedicated virtual computer. Meta says the system is built to operate with user permission while keeping connected information protected.
Early tests have shown that Muse can simplify complex tasks, although it can still make mistakes, including recommending businesses that are no longer operating. The experience highlights both the potential and current limitations of autonomous AI assistants.
Can Muse compete with ChatGPT and Gemini?
Meta is clearly positioning the platform as a direct competitor, but its ability to earn users’ trust while performing real-world tasks could become just as important as its technical capabilities.
The company is also expanding Muse beyond smartphones, bringing the assistant to its AI glasses and introducing new ways to interact with it.
