Meta releases Muse Spark Open, an open-weight model optimised for Macs
Why it matters for readers: If you use Macs and code or edit media, this shows major AI models are being designed for desktop workflows, but they need lots of memory.
- Muse Spark Open has 816 billion parameters and a 1 million token context window, per Meta.1
- Meta describes the model as natively multimodal and targeted at complex coding tasks and agentic labour.1
- The model is designed to run on Macs and performs best on Mac Studio machines with the M5 Ultra chip.1
- Running Muse Spark Open locally requires a large amount of memory—reports note at least 1 TB of RAM.1
- Meta paired the model with Muse Code and used it in workflows including fixing a Mastodon client and reviewing/cropping footage in DaVinci Resolve.1
