Meta launched a personal AI agent named Muse this week and took over the @muse username on both Instagram and X, usernames the rock band Muse had held for over a decade. The band has been pushed to @museband on Instagram and @musetheband on X, with no public explanation from either Meta or the band about how the switch occurred.
The U.S. carried out another round of military strikes targeting tankers carrying Iranian oil, escalating pressure on Tehran's crude exports. Separately, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to approve use of a voter verification system, and Meta launched a new consumer-facing AI agent.
Meta has released Muse, a personal AI agent built under chief AI officer Alexandr Wang, offering a customizable chat interface with a named avatar and a visible built-in browser running on a dedicated cloud virtual machine. The agent is available free with two paid tiers at $20 and $100 monthly, launching first in the US on iOS, Android and web, with glasses support planned.
Meta introduced Muse, a new personal AI agent that can independently send emails, book travel, complete web forms, and negotiate deals using a user's stored email, payment, and account information. Announced by Mark Zuckerberg via Instagram, Muse runs on Meta's new Muse Spark model and is available in the U.S. through a standalone app, WhatsApp integration, and the muse.ai website, with free basic access and paid tiers for more complex tasks. Meta also plans to bring Muse support to its AI glasses.
Meta rolled out Muse, a personal AI agent built by Meta Superintelligence Labs that can be messaged through a dedicated app, Muse.ai, or WhatsApp to handle digital chores like sending emails, booking travel, or selling a car. The agent can also make purchases on a user's behalf using single-use virtual card numbers powered by Stripe's Link tool, and is free to try with paid subscriptions needed for heavier use.
Meta AI has released Muse, a new personal AI agent available as an iPhone app and through the web at muse.ai for Mac users. The app lets users customize their agent's name and avatar, and offers free access with weekly usage limits, while paid subscribers get expanded access. Muse is currently limited to the US, with plans to expand to more countries over time.
Meta has introduced a new personal AI agent aimed at everyday users, capable of handling tasks like online shopping and sending emails. The launch is framed as an accessible entry point into agentic AI rather than a developer-focused tool.
Meta introduced Muse, a personal AI assistant for U.S. users that connects to email, calendars, payment apps, and other everyday services to complete tasks like booking travel, paying bills, filling out forms, and making purchases. It arrives powered by Meta's Muse Spark model and uses Link by Stripe for checkout, with Shopify and 1Password integrations planned, while letting users opt in to connect apps individually.
Meta introduced Muse, a personal AI agent that can autonomously handle tasks like online shopping, sending emails, and trip planning by opening browsers, filling out forms, and even negotiating on a user's behalf. The assistant will launch in the US on iOS, Android, and muse.ai, with support for AI glasses planned, and will be free for most users while Meta develops unspecified paid tiers for heavier use.
Developer Ayghri released i-have-adhd, an open-source skill/plugin for coding assistants like Claude Code that rewrites how the AI communicates: it leads with the next action, numbers steps, gives time estimates, caps lists, and cuts preambles, tangents and closing pleasantries. It installs via a CLI prompt pointing to the project's GitHub repo and can be customized by forking and editing its SKILL.md rules file.
Google's Threat Intelligence Group reports that attackers are moving from simple AI-assisted coding to fully autonomous, multi-agent systems that plan and execute entire attacks with little human input. In one case, a financially motivated actor compromised cloud infrastructure and used an AI coding chatbot with markdown-based agent instructions to build and run a mass credential-harvesting operation in under six hours. Separately, researchers found an exposed command-and-control server running a framework called 'Recon' that autonomously managed reconnaissance and tens of thousands of harvested credentials.
xAI's Grok Build is a terminal-based AI coding assistant that supports mouse clicks for navigation but requires an external editor like Visual Studio Code for direct code edits, unlike rivals such as Google's Antigravity that bundle a full IDE. Users can prompt it to explain a codebase, install dependencies, run a web app, or build one from scratch and get deployment guidance, then iterate with further prompts. Access depends on a Grok plan, with free users hitting token limits quickly and paid SuperGrok tiers ($30 to $300 monthly) offering higher weekly caps.
