Meta has launched Spaces, a new feature that lets users create dedicated, topic-based conversation threads with its Muse AI agents, such as a vacation planner or holiday gift tracker. These Spaces appear in a sidebar and can sync with third-party apps to automatically update information like price changes or event dates. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the feature on X, describing personal uses like a BBQ game and home control dashboard.

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.
