Meta released Muse, its personal AI agent, in early September, saying it will help users automate everyday tasks by connecting to their apps and services. It is the company's first major update to the AI agent since its launch, marking a significant step in its consumer AI strategy.

Meta reported Muse is powered by Muse Spark, a multimodal AI model built for agentic work, and targets users looking to streamline their daily routines. Availability begins in the coming months, initially for users of Meta's smart glasses and desktop platforms.

"The centerpiece of our vision for what we’re building is Muse," said Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta. "In the coming years, I expect that Muse is going to grow into the personal superintelligence that billions of people around the world are going to use to accomplish their goals and improve their lives."

The announcement follows Meta's annual Connect event in Menlo Park, where Zuckerberg emphasized the company's commitment to advancing Muse as a key part of its AI strategy. Meta framed the update as a step toward making AI more accessible and integrated into users' lives.

Meta did not say when the digital avatar feature will be available, and the company raised the question of how users will personalize their Muse experience. The source says the feature will be available "soon," but no exact timeline was given.
