Meta Unveils Muse Charm and Gemini Can Call for You

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Today on the podcast, Meta just held their big Connect conference and unveiled a whole bunch of new features for Muse. Also, they've unveiled new hardware, including a little charm that you can hold, and some new camera-less glasses, as some people are kind of worried about cameras and concerned that, you know, the privacy and the security side of walking around with a camera. Some people might not like that, so they have a new tool for that. Also, Google Gemini is now going to be able to call businesses and wait on hold for you, which is incredibly useful coming out of Google. Eleven Labs has just hit a $600 million ARR, and they are reporting a $22 billion valuation. They're potentially looking at an IPO in 2028

DeepSeek has just hit an annualized revenue run rate of $1 billion. All of that and more on the podcast today. I wanted to mention, if you ever have wanted to start a business or scale your current business or side hustle using AI, I would love for you to join my AI hustle school community. This is a place where every single week I break down, I post a video on there every week, and I break down how I'm growing and scaling my businesses with AI. I also break down three different paths for you to take to make money with AI. My goal is for anyone that joins the community to be able to make 10,000 in their main business or as a side hustle using AI. We have three main areas where we kind of help you do that. You can either build an AI tool or SAS. You can become an AI consultant or there's a number of different ways where you can create content using AI to generate money. So there's a whole bunch of different strategies that I've tried and my cohost Jamie, who runs the community with me. We both are constantly working on things online. If you want to join the community, it's only $19 a month. I'll leave a link in the description. New videos drop every single week, and I think there's about 100 videos, courses, templates all inside of the community right now with over 1300 members. All right. And yeah, links in the description. Okay. Let's talk about what Meta just announced today. So this is called Meta's Muse Charm. It has a 5G modem inside of it, so it's always connected. It doesn't need the Wi-Fi. And Zuckerberg just came out and basically unveiled this whole thing at the conference or at their big conference today. I honestly was really impressed with this for a whole bunch of reasons. Number one, I guess my biggest response is like, Apple, where are you? We've had the Samsung fold tablet phone thing out for like six years or something like that. Apple comes out with theirs and sure, Apple does things good. And it's, you know, delightful and a nice folding phone, but it's super expensive. I don't know how many people are using it. Meanwhile, we have Facebook, who I'm not really ever pegging them as someone that's going to compete with Apple has come up with this device, which if you're watching the video on Apple podcast, because you can now watch videos for the podcast, you'll see that this device is really cool. It's super slick. It looks basically like an Apple watch, like the face of it. It's just kind of attached to a string, kind of like a Tamagotchi. And it's got all of these little Muse characters inside of it. You push a button on the side, which is a fingerprint scanner. So it's, you know, listening for your actual fingerprint, meaning if someone stole it, they wouldn't be able to, you know, use tons and tons of compute. I'm not sure if it's going to be free or charged or how this works, but regardless, you got to hit it with your fingerprint and then you can talk to it and ask it any questions. Also, I think the fingerprint is good security because you'll inevitably have this thing tied into lots of your different accounts and lots of information about you will be on there. It's more personalized, so you wouldn't want someone stealing this for security reasons. So I think that's phenomenal. This thing looks super slick. And I mean, I'm just looking ahead at the future here. It's pretty obvious to me where Meta is going with this. This is going to basically be an interface where you could get away from a phone entirely. I could leave my house if I had this thing on my key chain. That was the idea of it. They said this thing just goes on your key chain. You can leave your house and if you have a question, you can use it and say, hey, call me an Uber from this address to this place. It could call the Uber theoretically and send it to you. My assumption is this thing is going to connect directly with your Muse on your desktop. So if you have your computer open at home with your Muse up and you're gone, you probably can hit this thing and say, just like how open AI and there's remote access tools built into, I think it's dispatch built into N4Operx Cloud.
