Browsing: Muse

Meta Platforms’ new artificial intelligence shopping assistant Muse is emerging as a potential threat to Amazon, potentially challenging the e-commerce giant’s dominance in online shopping and its nearly $70 billion advertising business.

Figures are FoxData third-party estimates for the week ending October 29, 2026 unless noted; launch facts are from Meta and press coverage.

I have a to-buy list that I never seem to tackle. It’s got the kinds of “adult” items that aren’t necessarily fun to shop for, unlike clothes. Things like furniture, appliances and office equipment. But there are three items I need right now: an ottoman, an air purifier and a humidifier. 

Meta’s fuzzy-looking personal AI agent Muse is apparently getting tried out—a lot.

Shopify (SHOP) stock is up 33% in the past month (through Monday’s close), while the Nasdaq 100 slipped 0.4%.

If the excitement around Meta’s (META) new Muse AI agent is slowing down, you certainly don’t see it in the download numbers Wall Street is tracking like a hawk.

The company has shared info on some of the more common business use cases for its Muse AI tools based on examples it’s seen thus far.

Some U.S. banks are, thankfully, blocking their clients from letting Meta’s Muse AI bot root around in their accounts. Even more thankfully, it appears relatively few people have been dumb enough to try.

Meta says Muse excels at ‘multi-step reasoning’ and ‘complex software engineering’ as it races to catch up to Chinese rivals

Meta’s Muse has moved personal AI agents from consumer curiosity to contact center reality. Adoption, hands-on user testing, detection data, and vendor response all point to a harder CX question: how do enterprises serve AI acting for customers without losing trust?
