Artificial intelligence is already on our phones, laptops and inside the apps we use every day.
Now, Meta wants it on our wrists, too.
The company has expanded its AI agent, Muse, to Apple Watch and devices running Google’s Wear OS, making the assistant accessible directly from a smartwatch.
Instead of reaching for a phone, users can interact with Muse through voice conversations, text messages and dictation.
And the assistant is designed to do more than answer random questions.
Muse can connect to supported accounts and help with everyday tasks, including organizing meetings, managing information, planning activities and handling certain online requests.
The smartwatch expansion is part of Meta’s wider effort to make Muse available across different devices.
The AI assistant already has a mobile app, and Meta has been adding features designed to make interactions feel more personal.
Users can customize their AI avatar, while other recently introduced tools include dedicated conversation spaces and video interactions in supported markets.
But here’s the interesting part.
As AI becomes available through smartwatches, interacting with it could start feeling less like opening an app and more like talking to something that’s always nearby.
Need to organize your schedule? Ask your watch.
Want help planning your day? Same thing.
Of course, that convenience also raises questions about privacy, account access and how much personal information people want to share with AI assistants.
And there’s no need to confuse this announcement with Meta’s smart glasses.
This update is specifically about Muse working on Apple Watch and Wear OS devices.
AI assistants are becoming increasingly portable.
The next challenge is proving they’re actually useful enough to keep around.
