Meta's muse expands to mac, offering desktop AI integration

Meta has launched its AI assistant, Muse, on macOS, enabling users to manage files, messages, calendar, notes, and mail directly through native applications. The desktop version follows recent mobile and web releases, which saw Muse top the U.S. App Store charts. Muse for Mac requires opt-in access to data and prompts users before performing sensitive actions, as emphasized by Meta. The release comes amid fierce competition in consumer AI agents, with companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, and startups such as Poke and Instinct vying for market share. Instinct, now valued at $10 billion, has also introduced voice calling features. Mark Zuckerberg highlighted the team’s rapid development pace during the announcement. Meanwhile, other tech news includes Tesla’s upcoming Roadster reveal and a data breach at Revolut.
