Meta is expanding its AI assistant strategy with Muse Charm, a dedicated palm-sized device that pairs a small OLED display, cameras, and 5G connectivity to make Muse a more portable, always-on experience. For CIOs and technology leaders, this signals that AI assistants are moving beyond software into purpose-built hardware ecosystems, which could change how employees interact with AI tools, influence device procurement strategies, and raise new questions around privacy, security, and integration with enterprise workflows.
