Meta’s Muse leads downloads as AI agents like OpenAI’s dots and Anthropic’s Duet emerge
Why it matters for readers: If you’re curious about AI, agents show how models are moving from answering questions to doing real-world tasks for users.
- Meta’s Muse launched last month and has been the most downloaded phone app, according to reports.1
- OpenAI introduced a competing AI assistant called dots, which costs $100 per month to use.1
- Anthropic announced it is testing an agent named Duet.1
- AI agents differ from chatbots by acting like a user’s virtual computer and browser to perform tasks such as booking, applying for jobs and sending emails.1
- Earlier virtual assistants from companies like Amazon, Apple and Google failed to catch on because they were slow and clunky, but modern agents are more flexible and efficient.1
