Meta adds real-time voice conversations to its Muse AI agent, allowing users to talk instead of typing. The update also introduces an animated avatar that reacts during the conversation, shown within the Muse app experience. Meta says the feature is available as users adopt Muse on multiple platforms, including phones and web, with additional availability noted for Mac.

Outlets also highlight how the capability extends beyond simple voice input. TechCrunch reports that US users can video chat with the Muse avatar, positioning the feature as part of a broader push to make Muse feel more interactive and “alive.” It also connects the rollout to a planned Tamagotchi-like wearable. The Verge similarly frames the change as a newly launched voice mode introduced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, with hands-on use reported in its coverage.
