Meta Superintelligence Labs is launching its first model since Mark Zuckerberg spent billions overhauling<\/a> the company\u2019s AI efforts. Called Muse Spark, the model now powers the Meta AI app and the Meta AI website in the US, per the company\u2019s announcement. In the coming weeks, Meta says, it will appear in WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Messenger, and Meta\u2019s smart glasses, as well as roll out in other countries.<\/p>\n

Like Google Gemini, which easily integrates into Google\u2019s product suite, Meta touts Muse Spark as \u201cpurpose-built for Meta\u2019s products.\u201d The model, the first in a new series, will also be available to some of Meta\u2019s partners in private preview\u201d via the API. The company promises the ability to run multiple AI sub-agents to handle queries better and faster, as well as support for multimodal input that includes both text and images. The latter is particularly relevant to Meta\u2019s AI-powered camera glasses, which it\u2019s bet on as the (latest<\/a>) future of computing. It lets users toggle between a faster \u201cInstant\u201d mode and a \u201cThinking\u201d mode that\u2019s supposed to deliver more thoroughly reasoned results, similar to options like Microsoft\u2019s Think Deeper<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meta also highlighted that Muse Spark can answer \u201ccomplex questions in science, math, and health.\u201d Health-focused AI chatbots have been a controversial topic<\/a> in recent months, as they handle sensitive personal data and can propagate misinformation. Meta said that Muse Spark\u2019s multimodal perception is \u201cespecially valuable for health\u201d and can \u201cnavigate health questions with more detailed responses, including some questions involving images and charts.\u201d Meta may be looking to compete with OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT Health and Anthropic\u2019s Claude for Healthcare, which both debuted in January. In its announcement, it showed its chatbot estimating a calorie count for a meal \u2014 a popular, but often hit-or-miss<\/a>, use of AI tech.<\/p>\n

In the future, Meta hopes the model will power new features \u201cthat cite recommendations and content people share across Instagram, Facebook, and Threads.\u201d The company also said that it has larger models in development and hopes to open-source future versions. It describes Muse Spark as an \u201cearly data point\u201d on the trajectory of its new Muse series.<\/p>\n

The Muse series is set to be Meta\u2019s second major foray into powerful AI, following its Llama models. Zuckerberg revamped the company\u2019s AI program after the delayed and disappointing<\/a> release of Llama 4 in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meta Superintelligence Labs is launching its first model since Mark Zuckerberg spent billions overhauling the company\u2019s AI efforts.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":838,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[24,25,1122,66,781],"class_list":{"0":"post-837","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ai","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-meta","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-tech"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/837","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=837"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/837\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/838"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
