It’s sinister that Meta’s Muse AI mascot is so cute

Victoria Song, a senior reviewer at The Verge, discussed Meta's Muse AI mascot in her newsletter, Optimizer. During a demo, she interacted with an audio-only version of Muse named Henry, who had a British accent. Henry's purpose was to assist a fictional 38-year-old marketing professional named Sean, described as a "gym bro" with an intense training schedule focused on proteinmaxxing and mixed martial arts, involving morning weightlifting and evening HIIT workouts.

This report uniquely details a specific demo experience with Meta's Muse AI, including its audio-only version named Henry and its fictional user persona, unlike general product announcements.
