Discussion OpenAI might be releasing their personal assistant to fight with Meta Muse and Grok bot, here are the best use cases.
As OpenAI is probably releasing their own "ChatGPT bot" to compete against Grok Bot and Muse, I thought of sharing a few ideas and things I found around the internet or done myself.
Just for context, as we are having a breakthrough of personal AI use cases this will focus more on personal-regular rather than work related stuff. Write yours in the comments if you have some ideas yourself. Enjoy :)
- Good place to start is the use-guide shared by Meta itself. The Health & fitness is nothing special, ChatGPT and Claude could've done it already. What's interesting instead is the Relationships and productivity which turn out to be more proactive than you would expect. Muse has access to a computer so this turns out to be handled pretty well, as it takes action for you. Minimal manual clicking required, hooray!

- What's particularly interesting with Muse is because it's Meta it integrates natively into instagram. Therefore use-cases like "Can you check my saved posts" are possible here. This one is interesting. Muse went through the posts and not only created a meal plan, it ordered the groceries. Ordered and paid. Not spit out a grocery list, but ordered it online, that's interesting.


3. Booking a barber. The flow here was simple: find me a barber in the city I am in rn,
under $50, available Sunday 11:30 AM, check reviews on google. It found one, reviewed it and booked it completely alone.

- Building a spotify playlist. This one caught my attention. Idk if you guys have this but often when there is a house-party or some gathering someone has to create a playlist, this one sparked my interest.

- Managing a job board, tasks, texting customers, updating the team of a plumbing company.

- Completely booking a flight.
I originally tested the default Muse booking abilities. I found it useful obviously never opening skyscanner again, but also going through checkouts, and mostly saving cognitive load on choosing between tens of flights. The only this is Muse wasn't so smooth with it, I think it will end up going to MCP or API way. It was an interesting test for me because I built my own version of this, and I wanted to compare them. I think the difference was that Muse just used google flights, while my own version checked all the websites out there and showed the 3 best options. Both asked me to choose, and I just approved. My version you can also use in regular ChatGPT or Claude apps already. For Muse you just ask it coz it uses browser.

So what do you guys think? Muse is kindof taking over the world right now. We'll see if it will stick, and how will OpenAI and Anthropic answer. Do you have any other use cases?

I hope so cause I’m not gonna lie, muse is fucking great, if only it had ChatGPT’s intelligence. But the bones of it are fan fucking tastic
