Meta's new AI agent, Muse, is designed for users with no technical experience. It can browse the web, shop online, fill forms, plan trips, send emails, and schedule events. Muse connects to third-party services like Google and Spotify and can build its own software to handle complex tasks.

To get started, download the Muse app or visit the website and log in with a Meta account—no Facebook or Instagram needed. After logging in, Muse prompts you to rename it and customize its avatar. Before use, review settings: opt out of model training under 'data controls' and adjust permissions under the 'permissions' tab.

Meta's default asks for consent on web and third-party actions, but users can set it to 'always ask' for more control. Connectors let you link services like Spotify or Open Table; Muse can access any service with a public API, even if not listed, via manual setup. Some users create dedicated emails for Muse to limit risk.

The agent has a minimal learning curve, making AI accessible to broader audiences.
