What to know

  • Meta is shipping the Muse Charm—a Tamagotchi-like handheld with a modern display—starting December to put its Muse AI agent in users' pockets.
  • Muse is designed as a personalized AI assistant capable of handling email, booking travel, and shopping when given account access, positioning it as a 'superintelligence' tool.
  • The device represents Meta's strategy to embed Muse across hardware (smart glasses coming soon) while taking on AI competitors like OpenAI and Google.

“At Meta, we are optimists. Because we believe in people. We believe the best way to create a positive future for everyone is to put power in people's hands.”
