What changed

Meta unveiled Muse, an AI agent that can book travel, make purchases, send emails, and negotiate prices through WhatsApp. Its payment feature uses Stripe’s Link, while a separate agent called Sentinel checks actions before they reach the internet.

What this means for you

This could let WhatsApp users handle shopping, travel, and email tasks in one conversation, but the supplied information does not say when Muse will be available or what it will cost. Sentinel’s checks may add a layer of oversight before actions are completed online.
