- What they did
- Users of Meta's Muse agent, as part of Alexandr Wang's #MuseMoneyChallenge, prompted it to review their finances and find savings. Coinbase product manager Nick Prince said Muse helped him dodge dealership upsells and a large fee. Another user said it turned up an unused Verizon gift card. The source gives no detail on prompts or steps.
- How it went
- Prince reported saving $1,250 at the dealership, and another user reported finding a $200 Verizon gift card. These are self-reported posts, and many challenge posts came from Meta's own staff.
- Worth knowing
- Amazon blocked Muse from placing orders in its shopping carts, so agent purchasing on some sites may be restricted.
