Meta’s Muse AI agent excels at spending money on mundane errands
A fallen tree branch and a canceled trash service are the kind of domestic friction that Meta’s new AI agent, Muse, promises to resolve. While the tech industry has long touted the arrival of a capable virtual assistant, testing the bot on real-world chores reveals a surprising aptitude for commerce.
The digital assistant, which I nicknamed Marley, spent the better part of the week pinging me with suggestions before I finally put it to work. Watching the agent navigate virtual browser windows to execute tasks was a dizzying experience, particularly when the process required handling payment information.
While the promise of AI triage is often met with skepticism, Muse handled my backlog of tedious to-do items with unexpected efficiency. By automating the friction of administrative upkeep—like resolving service account issues or managing home maintenance requests—the agent successfully transitioned from a persistent notification in my inbox to a functional tool that actually completes the homework life demands.
