    Meta Muse AI Hits 5M Downloads as Amazon and Shopify Take Divergent Integration Paths

    Direct answer

    Meta's rollout of the Muse AI agent reached 5 million downloads following an initial 730,000 installations within five days. The release supported a 25%-26% share gain for Meta over September as investors priced in new consumer monetization pathways. The application has generated contrasting platform responses.
