NVIDIA's technical blog reports Muse Glimmer serving over 20K tokens/sec on a single Blackwell Ultra GPU and covers RTX 5090, DGX Spark, DGX Station and Jetson deployments.
The post covers serving through SGLang, vLLM and NIM, fine-tuning (SFT and LoRA) with NeMo AutoModel, and argues dense models suit long-running agents better than mixture-of-experts models.
Took your custom-connector idea to the physical world: the "service with an API" was my robot. Muse wrote the connector for my rover's API, then installed PyTorch & Depth Anything V2 in the VM because the camera is 2D, drove to the black ball and stopped a few inches short.

My fun weekend project was to try to make the new Muse Glimmer 30B work with a longer context, deciding to go for 512k first. I had expected the usual YaRN shenanigans and maybe a LoRA. I couldn't have been wrong more. Upon closer look, Glimmer turned out to be rather unusual architecturally. The thing that make long-context adaptations painful in other models, full attention layers with token position encoding, it simply not there. Instead, only 2048 tokens-wide SWA layers have RoPE, and full GQA attention layers have no position encoding at all. It appears the model is trained to work with long-distance token relationships inferred from the context and SWA layers. It's a rather bold architecture bet, but it seems Meta managed to pull it off. As a result, the model architecture appears to be uniquely suited for context extension by simple mechanical means. To change model context length from stock 128k to, say, 512k, you need only to change “max_position_embeddings” config setting from 131072 to 524288. What confuses other models, like Qwen3.5 family, Glimmer just takes into its stride. I spent close to 70h of compute on DGX Spark to test stock model with extended context on a

DesignRush argued Muse inserts itself into product discovery and ranks on structured data like specs and reviews rather than ad spend, and told brands to map the agent shopping journey, measure agent referrals separately, and audit who can access their product data.

Taylor Arndt retried Muse after Meta Connect with Gmail, Google Calendar, GitHub and her own product-management tool connected, and found it inferred her COO role from calendar data and became useful for ongoing task management.

Julian Goldie's GoldieBench scores Muse Spark 1.2 at 7.55/10 across 50 one-shot builds. It did well on fractals (8.7), a macOS desktop sim (8.6) and a galaxy viz (8.6), but 3D games like Doom and Dragonrealm often came out incomplete or black.

Got Muse logged in to my medical provider’s portal, he pulled the itemized bills, and questioned every line. So far he’s found several times I’d been double billed, asked for some discounts and has saved me over $4,000. If your moat is bureaucracy, you’re cooked.
