ElevenLabs is coming to @Muse.
Voiceovers, soundtracks, and videos are just a message away inside Meta's personal AI agent.

Attention developers! You can now build your own Muse connectors.
Opening access for developers to build Muse connectors. You bring the API -- Muse brings the agent, the browser, and the context of what the person actually wants. People reach your service just by asking for it, and their agent takes it from there.
New connectors are live today. Come build with us. muse.ai/platform

tasks handled with the click of a button ✅
The action button integration is absolutely the fastest way to ask your @Muse to do stuff for you on iOS - including directly from the lock screen. It's sick!

Last month I wrote about how we can build a positive and safe future for everyone: meta.com/thefutureisforevery…
Every lab has the responsibility and incentive to move at the pace required to train its models safely, and the ability to take its own actions to ensure that happens.
The reality is:
- People won't want to use agents that are misaligned with them and that don't do what they ask, so labs have a strong natural incentive to make their models more aligned.
There is a lot of debate about slowing progress on capabilities until alignment catches up. My view is that trust and alignment are quickly becoming the most important capabilities that will differentiate agents and models. Any lab that doesn't focus on alignment will fall behind.
- Labs face significant liability if their models cause harm, so they have a strong incentive to prevent this as well.
Meta delayed shipping Muse for several months to focus on safety and security. We didn't call for everyone else to do this before we would. We just did it as part of our day-to-day work because it was clearly the right thing for people and for us. I'm proud of the security foundations we've built.
- Engaging independent evaluators and advisors is industry best practice. MSL already does this today in several areas because it helps produce better work. Other labs can just do this too. In general, it would be helpful for there to be a larger and more diverse ecosystem of evaluators.
- Committing the significant majority of compute towards serving people rather than racing towards recursive self-improvement is one of the best ways to ensure we develop this technology safely. Meta has made this commitment and other labs can do this as well.
I believe the key to building a positive future for everyone is maintaining the right balance of power. This is within our power to do.

Muse is out today.
An agent like this is a different kind of system to design. It reads your mail, spends your money, runs your code. Getting that right took real care, and our technical post walks through exactly how. We designed security in.

Muse from @Meta just dropped and Shopify merchants are already live
When someone uses their Muse for shopping, it searches Shopify Catalog to find the best match
Checkout happens directly in the app

@Muse is your personal agent. It gets to know you and do things for you. It has a name, personality and avatar, my Muse is named Bean.
It has a computer, browser and Secure Credential Storage. Because it acts for you, we put privacy, security and safety first. I wrote about our approach at security.muse.ai.
You can read more about the product vision on introducing.muse.ai from my friends @mona_sarantakos and @christinesed .

the team poured their heart and souls into it, and it warms our hearts to see the response ❤️
we are really excited for more people to try it: muse.ai/join
Muse by Meta may be the best new product of the year
- character design is brilliant. cute = trustworthy. customization is easy too.
- clean, simple, beautiful. love the MD file visual design
- REALLY FAST. and executes all the cutting edge agentic flows (esp with browsers) well
- amazing design choices everywhere: thinking, permissions, etc out of the way on sidebar, ideas, side chats, feed & goals are lovely new concepts, pinned sites on left nav
- great choice in initial use cases and connectors: health, 1pass, opentable, productivity, finances, etc. gets people right to a delightful moment quickly
- native instagram and other meta product integrations are a real edge, no one else has it. can make a dent in the market with this alone
- security emphasis at launch was brilliant given real concerns with growing agent capabilities
but
- everyday people don't know what md means in soul.md etc
- opening is a little stale and impersonal. default the agent's vibe to the user based on age/location - funnier, more playful without going overboard on how much it knows
- the feed idea is brilliant but content feels irrelevant to me so far
- not clear when to use a side chat vs the main one
its early, but I think this is the best new consumer product release from a big company I've ever seen.
everything from design to speed and performance are absolutely top notch.
but what really stands out is the calculated beta meta took introducing new patterns here that ultimately paid off.
it feels like the team synthesized 2 years of experimentation in UX paradigms across the industry into a few extremely legible and intuitive features.
goals in particular is brilliant because it not only helps the agent figure out how to help the user but it also helps the user figure out themselves. ultimately the reason anyone uses ANY productivity tool is to become a better person of themselves. better is usually across a few areas that Muse nails explicitly.
social media has been controversial in its impact on peoples lives. I know Meta has been pushing for "time well spent" for a long time.
this may finally be the app that truly changes the lives of billions of people around the world.
congrats team!

The X Safety team conducted an investigation into suspected Chinese inauthentic accounts involved in influence operations:
We identified a bot farm of approximately 200,000 accounts. Within this farm, we found 200 accounts posting in a manner that could manipulate a legitimate debate about American AI and energy policy.
These posts contained claims that AI data centers are driving up household electricity prices and straining the grid. Others included AI-generated cartoons that depicted data-center operators enriching themselves at the public's expense.
We remain committed to maintaining an open and authentic platform where people debate topics of public interest. We take seriously any attempts to undermine the integrity of the global town square and suspend accounts that violate our Authenticity policy.
Matt Luker retweeted
I really think that the public's understanding of how data centers physically interact with their communities is bordering on a low level mass delusion. The actual numbers and impact just do not at all bear out how people feel about them.
