Code in WhatsApp's Android app suggests Meta AI could go read-only and give way to Muse, an assistant that handles tasks like emails and table bookings.
WhatsApp appears to be preparing to replace Meta AI, its built-in chat helper, with a new one called Muse. The hints come from code in the Android app, shared on X by tipster Abhishek Yadav. Nothing is official yet, and the report does not include a statement from Meta.
Text found in Android app version 2.26.41.77 says Meta AI will become "read-only." That means you could still view old Meta AI chats, but could not chat with it anymore. Muse would take over as an AI agent, which is a helper that does tasks for you instead of only answering questions. One line says Muse manages emails, books tables and more.
Users may also be able to bring over what another AI assistant knows about them. The app text tells you to copy a prompt into a chat with your other AI provider, then paste the reply into Muse. Muse could also link to other apps and services through what the code calls "connectors." A prompt may tell users, "You are now eligible for Muse, your new AI agent."
The date Meta AI goes read-only appears only as a placeholder. It is unclear how connectors would work or how much access Muse would get to your accounts. There is no word on when, or whether, Muse will reach everyone. Code hints can change before any launch.
If Muse arrives, think before pasting in another assistant's memory of you or linking your email and other apps.
