Meta’s Muse AI works and creeps me out

Meta has officially launched Muse, its new AI-powered assistant designed to streamline productivity by automating daily tasks such as online shopping, email management, and travel planning. Positioned as a significant step into the productivity software market, Muse aims to handle routine busywork for users. Early hands-on testing indicates that the tool is functional and capable of executing complex requests effectively. However, the author notes a sense of unease regarding the agent's capabilities and its integration into personal workflows. While the technology demonstrates Meta's growing prowess in generative AI and agentic systems, it also raises questions about the boundaries of AI assistance in daily life. As Meta continues to refine Muse, the balance between utility and the 'creepy' factor remains a central point of discussion for early adopters and privacy-conscious users alike.
