Meta's Muse AI assistant comes to Apple Watch
Meta has added its Muse AI assistant to Apple Watch through an update to the iOS app.
The app lets users call Muse, text it or dictate messages from their wrist, and a watch complication offers quick access.
Muse is Meta's personal AI agent, available as a standalone app and through services such as Instagram and Facebook.
It can also carry out tasks, including booking event tickets, and Meta says it can connect to calendars, email and finance apps.
That access raises privacy concerns, especially because Muse previously synced 187,000 lines from a user's Apple Messages database on a Mac without permission, even though Full Disk Access was off.
Meta says users can approve actions, but also warns that Muse may be inaccurate or take unexpected actions.
The Apple Watch app is now available to Muse users; the sources do not describe any further steps or safeguards.
Meta updated its Muse iOS app to add an Apple Watch companion app.
Watch users can call Muse, send it text, dictate messages and access it through a complication.
Muse can perform tasks for users and is available as a standalone app and within Meta apps.
AppleInsider warned users against installing Muse, citing privacy concerns and a previous incident involving an Apple Messages database.
Meta says Muse may be inaccurate or take unexpected actions and advises users to check in and intervene as needed.
