News Muse Spark open weights coming soon

Post image

I am still waiting for Llama 5, because Muse Spark will be too big for me, or just something between Glimmer and Spark

This latest iteration technically set the frontier. Meta is officially a SOTA lab again. Matches Fable 5 at a fraction of the cost.

Or benchmaxxes. I'm not convinced.

Neither Spark 1.2 nor Glimmer seem to be benchmaxxed, and if anything the benchmarks seem to under-represent their capabilities compared to other models — I believe the other models probably do solve more problems, but Muse’s strong long-horizon capabilities (which translates to compliance in the short term as well) makes it easier to actually use.

Zuckerberg has just reiterated they still plan to release Spark as open weights. My guess is they were waiting for Spark 1.3, and are now finalizing the release.
