Meta unveiled Muse Charm, a fingerprint‑activated pendant that hangs on a keychain and runs the Muse AI assistant. The device measures a few centimeters, includes a tiny display showing the Muse avatar, and supports real‑time voice interaction; it is slated for December release. Muse itself, first disclosed by the Financial Times in May, launched two weeks prior and quickly topped the US iOS and Android download charts. The assistant provides a fleet of autonomous bots that can perform routine tasks such as grocery ordering, travel booking, and personal finance management. At Connect, Zuckerberg added live‑conversation capability to Muse and emphasized its state‑of‑the‑art privacy and security protections. Market reaction followed: Meta’s share price, which had fallen more than 25 % between September 2025 and early August 2026, rebounded after the September 8 launch, gaining roughly $300 billion in market capitalisation and trading slightly higher in after‑hours session. With access to Meta’s ~3 billion users, the free tier of Muse will be offered initially, with the company planning to derive revenue from a modest transaction fee on activities facilitated by the assistant.
