OpenAI has a Muse problem

Meta's product and distribution edge may outweigh OpenAI's frontier-model advantage in the emerging consumer AI-agent race, though neither has a proven business model.

• Three agents, one lineage: Meta's Muse, OpenAI's Dots, and xAI's GrokBot all descend from the 'OpenClaw' approach — a model plus harness controlling a browser/computer — and OpenAI even hired OpenClaw's creator.
• Free vs. paid split: Muse is free and flooding meta platforms (even NFL game ads); Dots costs $100-$200/month, pushing OpenAI toward enterprise users like marketing, legal, and accounting specialists.
