Meta pushes Muse AI agent for everyday tasks

Meta is promoting its Muse AI agent to book flights, order groceries and call customer service on users' behalf. The agent is US-only, and Meta spent $72 billion on AI in 2025 with plans to double that in 2026. Privacy concerns have surfaced, including a report that Muse read private messages on a journalist's Mac.
