Meta wants you to trust its Muse AI with your calendar, reminders, and bank accounts
Confirmed
In Short: According to a report from Testing Catalog, Meta's Muse AI has entered a limited closed alpha stage, marking a significant step towards its full release. The company is positioning Muse as an agentic AI assistant capable of managing various aspects of a user's digital life.
Android Authority spotted an App Store listing for the 'Muse from Meta' app, which provides detailed information about the app's features. Meta has been steadily rolling out updates to its AI services, including the release of Muse Spark and a local AI model, positioning itself as a competitor to other AI agents like Gemini.
Users will need to join a waitlist or enter an invite code to access Muse, which could support a variety of connectors including Gmail, Google Calendar, health apps, and even bank accounts. The AI agent is expected to help with tasks such as tracking expenses, suggesting subscription cancellations, and managing bank accounts.
While the focus is on the limited availability of Muse, the company is also expanding its AI capabilities. Gemini Spark, another AI agent from Meta, can now manage tasks in Google Photos, such as editing images and creating shared albums, further demonstrating Meta's commitment to integrating AI into its services.
