Meta's Muse can now call US businesses on users' behalf

Meta's AI agent Muse can now place calls to US businesses on behalf of paying subscribers in the US, after testing the feature in September. Meta AI chief Alexandr Wang said the agent, which has more than 10 million users, handles calls to cable companies, the DMV and restaurants, and will soon get a free email address. Many businesses hang up once they detect an AI on the line, a problem that led Meta to temporarily test human operators for Muse in September.
