The AI assistant space is shifting from “chatting and Q&A” to “doing work for you” in an all-out move. A key battle for user workflow entry points has already begun. After more than a month of launch for SpaceX AI’s Grok Bot, and Meta’s Muse taking the top spot on the App Store, OpenAI has been labeled a “chaser” and is urgently preparing—aiming to release its personal Agent product code-named “Aeon” as soon as this week to respond to pressure from two sides.
Grok Bot has reached 418,000 weekly active users as of September 14, up 24% from the previous week. Meta Muse climbed to No. 2 on the U.S. App Store’s free chart within two days of being released, and by September 22 it had claimed the top spot, pushing ChatGPT out of the way.
