Meta has unveiled a small handheld gadget called Muse Charm, designed to give users direct access to an AI personal agent without the need for phone, computer or smart glasses.

The Muse is designed to give consumers a way to stay connected to its recently launched and already popular, personal AI agent, Muse.

Mark Zuckerberg said Muse might become the primary interface for its glasses, allowing users to shop, make appointments and complete tasks through voice commands.
