Meta Muse AI Agent Now Places US Business Calls
Meta’s consumer agent Muse is rolling out voice calling to US businesses for paid subscribers, targeting the tedious task of customer service navigation. With over 10 million users, Meta is betting that AI’s infinite patience will replace human frustration with phone trees and hold times. The feature leverages improved voice mimicry to interact with receptionists, though many still hang up upon detecting non-human voices.
