Can Meta's Muse AI Agent Save You Money?

A new show in the Prof G universe by writer and investor Jack Raines! Each week, Jack takes a big story in tech or money and asks what it means for your life and your wallet. Meta’s new AI assistant, Muse, promises to do more than answer questions. It can shop, handle tedious tasks, and potentially find money you didn’t know you were owed. Jack looks at why Meta is giving it away, what happens to businesses that profit from customer inertia, and whether AI agents could put a dent in the “annoyance economy.” Plus, investor JC Barr de Stefano shares what happened when he let an AI agent try to score a hard-to-get dinner reservation.
