Meta released an AI model on Wednesday called Muse Spark, which marks its “first step” toward an “overhaul of [its] AI efforts.”
Muse Spark is the inaugural model to come out of Meta Superintelligence Labs, which was created last year because CEO Mark Zuckerberg was reportedly unhappy with the progress of Meta and its Llama models and how they lagged behind OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude. Meta recruited former Scale AI co-founder and CEO Alexandr Wang to lead Meta Superintelligence Labs and invested $14.3 billion in the data labeling company for a 49% stake.
