Muse Realtime Voice and Muse Realtime Avatar

Meta is rolling out voice conversations and expressive avatars in the Muse app, its AI assistant, on mobile, web and Mac. Users tap the phone icon in the top-right corner to talk to Muse in real time, and can interrupt mid-response. Muse carries out tasks in the background while the user talks, for example trip planning, brainstorming or rehearsing for an interview. The avatar uses expressions and gestures that match the tone of the conversation, and can be shown alongside the conversation, full screen or switched off for voice only. Users can choose from hundreds of voices. Real-time conversation was previewed at Connect 2026. The rollout starts in the US, with voice conversations coming soon to AI Glasses and Muse Charm. The text gives no benchmarks, latency figures or technical detail on the models.
