Meta Launches Muse AI Agent to Autonomously Manage Tasks with Privacy Controls

Analysed 9 Sept 2026·16 sources analysed·Washington, D.C., United States·Technology
Meta Launches Muse AI Agent to Autonomously Manage Tasks with Privacy ControlsPreviousNext

Meta has launched Muse, a personal AI agent available initially in the U.S. via a dedicated app and WhatsApp. Muse can autonomously perform tasks like sending emails, booking travel, making payments, and managing schedules by accessing users' apps with their permission. It operates within a secure virtual machine designed to protect privacy and security, with features allowing users to control access and approve sensitive actions. Meta plans to expand Muse to smart glasses and offers free and subscription tiers. Internal tests revealed some security concerns, which Meta addressed before release.
