Meta Unveils New AI Glasses and Major Upgrades to Muse Assistant
Meta said Muse can shop, answer emails and work on computers, and it uses a cloud runtime with user approval for sensitive actions.
- On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Meta chief AI officer Alexandr Wang introduced the Muse AI assistant at Meta Connect 2026 in Menlo Park, California, integrating it across the company's hardware ecosystem.
- Zuckerberg presented Muse as an early step toward his vision of "personal superintelligence," stating "the reason why Meta exists is because we actually believe in people."
- Muse now handles shopping via Stripe, Shopify's Shop Pay, and PayPal, though Amazon has blocked the assistant from its site; Meta requires user approval before sensitive actions like purchases or emails.
- Meta also debuted new Glasses delivering an "IMAX-grade cinema experience" with spatial computing, alongside audio glasses featuring hearing assistance for adults 18 and older with Disney and YouTube app control.
- The company confirmed Muse has expanded to Canada, with further international availability coming soon as Meta connects its "personal superintelligence" vision to its growing hardware collection.
