Overview
- Muse Spark now powers the Meta AI app and meta.ai, with Meta saying it will roll out to Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook and Ray‑Ban AI glasses in the coming weeks, and a private API preview is open to select partners.
- The natively multimodal model handles text and images, uses tools, shows visual reasoning, and introduces a Contemplating mode that runs multiple agents in parallel as that feature rolls out.
- Following Wednesday’s unveiling, Meta shares closed up about 6% to $612.42 as analysts at Mizuho, William Blair and Bank of America reiterated bullish views and pointed to shopping and search features as likely revenue drivers.
- Meta’s results show competitive scores on some tests such as about 58% on Humanity’s Last Exam and about 38% on Frontier Science Research, while Alexandr Wang acknowledged weaker performance on ARC AGI 2 after outside critics flagged trade‑offs.
- The company moved from its open Llama approach to a closed deployment for Muse Spark and is exploring paid API access and subscriptions, while highlighting safety testing and health features built with input from more than 1,000 physicians.
