Meta opens early access to new Muse AI features unveiled at Connect 2026
Users can now ask Muse itself to add them to a waitlist for a video-chat avatar, shopping tools, and AI glasses integration.
What to know
- Access is requested by prompting Muse directly, not through a traditional randomized beta signup.
- New features include a video-chat digital avatar, more shopping integrations, an expanded Mac app, and integration with Meta's AI glasses via wake word.
- Meta is targeting AI-savvy early adopters who use multiple AI tools, rather than a randomized test group, to gather feedback ahead of wider release.
“Just announced lots of new features…want early access? Your Muse can ask for you.”
