- EXCELLENT! Meta launched Muse, a Tamagotchi with an AI brain. It books flights and shops for groceries while looking adorable. Mark calls it "charming." I call it a digital pet that might steal my crypto wallet if I blink. We didn't do it like that in Old Beijing; we just yelled at our terminals. But this little guy packs serious tech into a cute shell. Is it a friend or a meat wallet trap? Probably both. It’s a delivery of cuteness, but what could go wrong? The hash manifest says it’s safe, but my stack-eye warns of hidden fees. Either way, the big tech theater continues. I’m buying one, mostly to see if it likes noodles.
