Meta · Muse models and agents
SOURCE CHECK
Meta’s current agent direction centers on the Muse model and product family. Llama remains a recognizable model-family name, but it should not be used as a substitute for Meta’s newer Muse announcements.
Product updates Meta
According to TechCrunch, Meta announced that its Muse AI agent is now available on Apple Watch and Android's Wear OS, letting users interact with the assistant via voice calls, text messages, or dictation on their smartwatch. The expansion follows Muse's September App Store debut and a dedicated iPad app, as Meta pushes the consumer assistant deeper into its device ecosystem.
Models & research Meta
According to TechCrunch, Meta Superintelligence Lab released Muse Ember, its lightest and most cost-efficient model, aimed at high-volume agent work such as tool calls, coding subtasks, routing, extraction and long document parsing. Meta claims it is cheaper and smarter than Anthropic's Haiku and OpenAI's Luna, at 10 cents per million input tokens, and says it pairs with the larger Muse Wonder model in agentic setups.
Product updates Meta
According to IT Home, Meta announced it will roll out AI age-estimation technology worldwide, extending Instagram's Teen Accounts protections to millions more teens even when their stated birth dates indicate they are adults. The company is also using Apple-provided age-range signals in Australia to help verify users' ages, with the approach expanding to Facebook and later Threads. The move follows lawsuits and an August settlement with US states over alleged harm to young users.
Models & research Meta
According to IT Home, Meta released specialized versions of its existing models trained on Muse Wonder and pushed them to Muse and Meta AI users, extending the Active Memory and Active Focus features first introduced with Muse Wonder. Meta reports the upgraded Muse model cuts loss of key goal information 2.4x and raises task completion 67% when daily tasks hit unexpected conditions; these are vendor-reported figures without independent evaluation.
Product updates Meta
According to TechCrunch, Meta introduced Spaces, a feature that lets users create topic-specific workspaces within its Muse agent interface, where Muse builds trackers, planners or project boards on request. Meta says Spaces can connect to third-party apps and refresh in the background. The launch follows Muse Voice and comes as Meta says Muse agents reached 10 million users in the U.S. and Canada.
Practical guides Meta
According to Ars Technica, Meta has indefinitely paused a planned update to its business terms that would have required Facebook page owners to allow AI training on external sites linked from their pages, with no opt-out. The retreat followed lawsuits and injunctions in Brazil and Norway, a UK CMA investigation, and bipartisan US Senate letters. Meta says existing terms remain in effect while it consults stakeholders.
Product updates Meta
According to TechCrunch, Meta said its Muse Voice feature, which lets US users call and video chat with its consumer AI agent Muse, is now available to everyone in the country. The feature, first shown at Meta's September Connect conference, relies on new Muse Realtime Avatar and Muse Realtime Voice models that drive an animated avatar with matching expressions and gestures. Meta also plans a Muse wearable before year-end.
Product updates Meta
According to IT Home, Meta has acquired Conductor, a 2024-founded startup whose AI coding tool lets users run multiple AI agents in parallel workspaces to advance separate software projects. Conductor CEO Charlie Holtz announced the move, saying he will work with Meta AI chief Alexandr Wang and Superintelligence Labs product lead Nat Friedman. Meta confirmed the deal to TechCrunch without disclosing terms. Conductor's cloud service closes November 20, with stored data to be deleted.
Product updates Meta
Meta announced a partnership with CNIB, a Canadian non-profit, to bring the lived experience of people who are blind, Deafblind or have low vision into the development of its AI glasses. Meta is funding community listening, peer-led demonstrations and training, and feedback to its accessibility and product teams. Meta is also donating AI glasses through CNIB's Come to Work employment program.
Agents & tools Meta
Meta says its Muse personal AI agent is now available in Singapore, following its earlier global announcement. The agent connects to services such as Gmail, Google Calendar and Instagram, plus local partners including Shopee, Grab, Singapore Airlines, Agoda, ShopBack, Klook, Trip.com and Lazada. Meta says Muse runs on a dedicated cloud computer called Muse Secure VM and asks users before sensitive actions like purchases or sending email. It is available on iOS, Android and muse.ai, with AI glasses coming soon.
