Meta's Muse Now Supports Real-Time Voice Chat: Avatars Move Along With Speech, Tone Is Fully Adjustable
Meta has rolled out voice conversation support for its Muse AI. The Verge tested the iOS version: it delivers fast responses, the avatar animates in sync with its speech, and it occasionally pauses to look up information. Users can adjust its tone either through direct conversation or system settings.
Meta's Muse AI now supports real-time voice conversations. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced this new feature on Threads.
Reporters at The Verge have accessed the feature, and tested the iOS version when drafting the report. During chats, the avatar at the top of the conversation animates in perfect sync with every word Muse speaks. Its vocal tone is also customizable: you can directly tell it what kind of voice you want and let it make the adjustment on its own, or pick from preset options in the avatar settings menu.
In our brief test, Muse delivered very fast voice responses. It occasionally pauses mid-speech when it is pulling up relevant information. The original announcement did not specify how long these pauses last, nor confirm whether the feature is already available to all users.
This update integrates three core features into one single interface: real-time voice chat, animated avatars, and adjustable vocal tone. Voice assistants are no longer a novelty, but the speech-synced moving avatar makes conversations feel much more like interacting with an actual character. Whether the real experience feels natural depends on how well the pauses, vocal tone and avatar animation align with each other. The Verge's initial experience found the service runs fast, but comes with occasional pauses. This tiny detail matters far more than marketing slogans.
