@Meta is back in open source. Excited to announce Day-0 vLLM support for Muse Glimmer 30B, the first open-weights model from Meta Superintelligence Labs — which ships under Apache 2.0!!! 30B dense, 128K+ context, multimodal, built for local agents. Capable enough for

Whoa, Meta released a new open-weight LLM yesterday, something that hasn't happened since the good old Llama days. Their Meta Muse Glimmer model is a 30B multimodal reasoning model with a Gemma-like architecture design. (“Glimmer” is probably a wordplay on “Spark,” the more

Muse Spark 1.3 is rolling out today with frontier performance almost too cheap to meter. This is the biggest jump we've made so far on coding and agentic work. Try it in Muse Code and our API. Next up 🍉 and Muse Spark open weights releases coming soon.

Simon Willison's notes on Muse Spark, Meta's first model since Llama 4: hosted, not open weights, with a private API and interesting tools in meta.ai chat.

Muse Glimmer is now live on Together AI. We’re proud to be a Day 0 launch partner for this open-weight model from Meta Superintelligence Labs, built for long-running agents that can reason, use tools, recover, and keep working across complex tasks.

Today we're also opening the weights for Muse Glimmer, a great 30B parameter dense model that can run locally. Soon we'll also release the weights for Muse Spark 1.2, our latest foundation model. Meta is a strong supporter of open source and I'm proud of these releases. Congrats

1/ big announcement today: we will be releasing an open weight version of muse spark 1.2 soon. we also are releasing muse glimmer, a 30B agentic model with open weights under apache 2.0. muse glimmer can run on 24GB of VRAM without losing agentic reliability. 🧵

I few notes on Meta's new Muse Glimmer 30B - their first Apache 2.0 licensed open weight model (the Llama models had a janky non-OSI license) simonwillison.net/2026/Aug/10/in…

Meta returns to open weights: Muse Glimmer, its first open-weights release since Llama 4, scores 35 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. It is a 30B-parameter model, and the first from Meta to be released under Apache 2.0 Muse Glimmer (high) arrives 16 months after

@ArtificialAnlys
At 30B parameters, Muse Glimmer sits near the Intelligence vs Parameters frontier for open weights models: 5 points above Gemma 4 31B (Reasoning) at the same size, effectively matching Kimi K2.5 (Reasoning) at 33x fewer total parameters, and just behind Qwen3.6 27B (Reasoning),
