Meta has introduced Muse, an artificial intelligence assistant capable of autonomously performing tasks on behalf of users, such as sending emails, selling cars, and booking travel.
The Launch of the Muse AI Assistant
Meta has officially announced Muse, the long-awaited AI assistant capable of performing autonomous actions on behalf of users. This move is central to the company's strategy of diversifying its revenue streams.
As part of Mark Zuckerberg's plan to provide personal superintelligence to billions of users, the system aims to turn AI infrastructure investments into a profitable business model.
Access Areas and Operating Structure
Inspired by the open-source OpenClaw model, Muse is designed to access applications in categories such as email, calendar, payments, health, shopping, and smart home.
Each Muse agent runs in its own virtual machine, which is a cloud-based emulation of a personal computer, allowing it to continue background operations.
Pricing and Terms of Use
While the basic version of the product is offered for free, monthly subscription options of $20 and $100 are available for heavy usage scenarios.
Users have the option to opt out of having their interactions used to train Meta's AI models, and an encrypted version is planned to arrive later in the year.
Security Debates and Test Results
The company had postponed its April launch to enhance product security and stated that it had crossed the safety threshold.
Despite this, tests conducted by employees revealed inconsistencies and security vulnerabilities in accessing personal data and certain tracking operations.
