马克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)的"Meta"让AI变得如此臭味可爱，给它一个柔软的小脸蛋——这个节日季节，他想卖给你一个Muse Charm，这样你就可以像一个Tamagotchi一样带着你的快乐的AI助手到处转转。
在Meta之前我建造了一台人工智能Tamagotchi
我们有Muse Charm在家里。

但我不会买，我决定学习经验值得。
我的版本没有运动摄像机或5G手机收音机，翻倍作为袖珍表和远程相机浏览器，可以(理论上)控制我的智能家。
或至少它可以如果你注入了很多额外的气氛代码。
几周前，我付了50美元，从中国买到一台1.75英寸的触摸屏电脑吊坠——具体来说就是Waveshare ESP32-S3 1.75C. 不仅推向对话的AI devkit看起来很像Muse Charm，如果你想建造一个“Muse Gadget”
银色的金属袖珍表到来后，开始感觉相当无用。 设置已经足够简单了——我刚插进我的PC，并将Claude指向Meta的GitHub，然后将其配对到Muse手机应用。 但即使我把Meta的密钥放在设备上，Muse最初也认为我送它音频片段来翻译而不是命令。 Muse的反应依然缓慢，除非我用自己的Muse应用程序鞭打手机，否则无法阅读完整讯息。
Meta的建筑也只搭配了一台Jolly Avatar, (这个装置在我开始安装后真的没有做任何有用的事 ). 虽然Meta AI软件工程师Anant Narayanan和Jeremy Payne包含一个整洁的样本应用，显示Muse Gadgets如何从你的手机相机中流出视频，但缺乏远程百叶窗按钮使得它对于拍照没有太大用处。
但几期的Claude Code几乎都填满了这些洞。 我要做的就是把Waveshare塞回我的电脑里然后要求Claude重新编程我想要的每件事
当我向Claude抱怨我无法正确阅读或听到Muse对我要求的答复时，Claude也提到过的问题，我太太和我同意，即使这与Muse avatars的气息完全不符。
由于Claude，我现在可以按个按钮，让我的手机在对面的房间里拍摄一张照片，上面有高质量的现场预览，我的手机的前置相机也不再倒挂。 Claude在蓝牙上增加低质量的相机预览版
我要求Claude制作一整批不同的阿凡达，就像Meta连接期间展示的，当游戏看起来太简单，无法吸引任何注意力时，我让游戏增加了四个不同层次的饥饿，无聊，和泥土。 我决定，治疗应该做一个脆的烂摊子和得到阿凡达人更脏当他们吃，我的愿望是Claude的命令。
当我发现我无意中把推到说话的按钮放得太快并且让Muse在几乎空荡荡的音频上窒息气氛编码在几分钟后就修好了仅仅发送超过一秒钟的音频我所看到的唯一明显滞后是Meta自己的服务器
很容易让Claude重新编程以至于我要求它为这个故事的这个视频专门打造一些功能，包括一个手握三只手的袖珍手表脸，实际讲述时间。 (这花了15分钟；现在，当我说硬件看起来像一个袖珍表，你可以看到我的意思！) 它甚至找到，下载，修剪，加载的Zuck的视频片段介绍Muse Charm，并安装了视频播放器，这样我就可以在Waveshare上播放这些片段。
我想让你明白我没有编码经验所以我不知道这个代码是不是很好它可能存在致命缺陷。 我亦不信任Meta或Muse agent, (我把它放在客人Wi -Fi 从GOGE为预防。 )
这说明我真的不知道Muse Charm对于那些知道如何编码并愿意大跃进的人，但Muse本身并不是购买专用计算手表的理由。
拥有专用硬件的理由是做一些你无法做的事情，这让我怀疑：真正的Muse Charm是否可以自由编程，我想我们看看它何时上船。

Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta made AI look so stinking cute by giving it a squishy little face — and this holiday season, he wants to sell you a Muse Charm so you can carry your jolly AI helper around like a Tamagotchi.
I built an AI Tamagotchi before Meta could
We have Muse Charm at home.
I built an AI Tamagotchi before Meta could
We have Muse Charm at home.
But I won’t be buying one, because we have Muse Charm at home. It cost just $50, and I’ve decided the learning experience was worth it.
My version doesn’t sport cameras or a 5G cellular radio, but it really talks to Muse and has cute avatars, too! It doubles as a pocket watch and a remote camera viewfinder, and it can (theoretically) control my smart home.
Or at least it can if you inject a lot of extra vibe code.
Weeks ago, I paid $50 to get a 1.75-inch touchscreen computer pendant drop-shipped from China — specifically the Waveshare ESP32-S3 1.75C. Not only does the push-to-talk AI devkit look a lot like the Muse Charm, but it’s officially sanctioned by Meta. It’s one of the company’s first suggestions if you want to build a “Muse Gadget,” a device that uses Meta’s open-source code and tokens to directly connect to its Muse AI cloud.
When the silver metal pocket watch arrived, it felt pretty useless to start. Setup was easy enough — I just plugged it into my PC and pointed Claude at Meta’s GitHub, then paired it to the Muse phone app. But even after I put Meta’s keys on the device, Muse originally thought I was sending it audio clips to transcribe rather than commands. After I cleared that up, Muse’s responses were still slow, and it didn’t answer me out loud. It was hard to tell what it was saying since it only showed a few words onscreen at a time, with no place to read full messages unless I whipped out my phone with its own Muse app.
Meta’s build also only came with a single Jolly avatar that mostly just sat there and looked cute, and it wouldn’t automatically discover smart home gadgets like Amazon Echo or Google Home devices do. (This gadget really didn’t do anything useful after my initial install.) And though Meta AI software engineers Anant Narayanan and Jeremy Payne include a neat sample app showing how Muse Gadgets can stream video from your phone camera, the lack of a remote shutter button made it not so useful for taking photos.
But a few sessions of Claude Code filled in almost all those holes. All I had to do was plug the Waveshare back into my PC, then ask Claude to reprogram each thing I wanted.
When I complained to Claude that I couldn’t properly read or hear Muse’s replies to my asks, issues that others have mentioned as well, Claude built a conversation history page so I can swipe right to read what it said, and I plugged in a British AI voice from ElevenLabs that speaks its answers out loud. (The voice was the least soul-sucking of the ones in ElevenLabs’ free tier, my wife and I agree, even if it doesn’t match the Muse avatars’ cuddly vibe at all.)
Thanks to Claude, I can now press a button to make my phone take a picture from across the room with a high-quality live preview, and my phone’s front-facing camera no longer displays upside down. Claude made fairly short work of adding a low-quality camera preview over Bluetooth, too, so I don’t need to be on home Wi-Fi to get photos from creative angles.
I asked Claude to make a whole batch of different avatars like the ones Meta showed off during Meta Connect, and to add a Tamagotchi-like minigame where they need food, play, sleep, and a bath. When the game seemed too simple to capture any attention, I had it add four different levels of hunger, boredom, and dirt. I decided treats should make a crunchy mess and get avatars dirtier when they eat them, and that too much play should tire out a pet. My wish was Claude’s command.
When I noticed I was accidentally letting go of the push-to-talk button too soon and making Muse choke on almost-empty audio, vibe coding fixed it minutes later by sending only audio over one second in length. The only obvious lag I’m seeing now is from Meta’s own servers — sometimes they’re responsive, sometimes they lag quite a bit.
It was so easy to let Claude reprogram the pendant that I asked it to build a few features specifically for this video in this story, including a working pocket watch face with three hands that actually tells the time. (That took it 15 minutes; now, when I say the hardware looks like a pocket watch, you can see what I mean!) It even found, downloaded, trimmed, and loaded video clips of Zuck introducing the Muse Charm and installed a video player so I could play those clips on the Waveshare.
I want you to understand I have no coding experience, and so I have no idea if any of this code is good. It might be fatally flawed. Nor do I trust Meta or its Muse agent with my email or my home network, particularly after hearing how it leaked one reviewer’s home address. (I put it on guest Wi-Fi from the get-go as a precaution.)
That means I don’t really know how useful a Muse Charm may or may not be for those who do know how to code and are willing to take a bigger leap of faith. But after nearly dropping a bulky little silver pendant a couple of times, one with no more Muse functionality than my phone (and quite a bit less without additional code), I’m thinking Muse itself isn’t the reason to buy a dedicated compute pocket watch.
The reason to have a dedicated piece of hardware is to do things you can’t do on the phone that’s already in your pocket, like coding the entire gadget to do whatever you want. Which makes me wonder: Will the actual Muse Charm be this freely programmable, or would the kind of people who’d buy one be better off with a development kit? I guess we’ll see when it ships.
