Meta is rolling out a new feature called 'spaces' to all users of its Muse AI assistant, letting people build app-like dashboards for tasks such as shopping, school schedules, music tracking or trivia games. Users create a space by describing it to Muse, can edit it through conversation or direct interaction, and can connect it to other apps so pricing, dates and other details update automatically. Spaces can be pinned to a sidebar, moved to the main tab, or scheduled to appear at certain times, and the rollout includes a specialized version of Meta's Muse Wonder AI model.

Axios and several other news outlets are producing content designed to be consumed by AI agents rather than human readers directly, including AI-optimized feeds and articles structured for agents to repackage into personalized summaries. Axios chief revenue officer Jacquelyn Cameron says the shift reflects a changing media ecosystem where search traffic is shrinking and hyperpersonalized AI consumption is rising. Other publishers, like Condé Nast, have signed licensing deals with AI platforms, while The New York Times is suing OpenAI and Microsoft over alleged unauthorized use of its content.
