Meta Releases Muse Spark Open AI Model Optimized for Apple Mac Studios

Analysed 16 Oct 2026·12 sources analysed·China·Technology
Meta Releases Muse Spark Open AI Model Optimized for Apple Mac StudiosPreviousNext

Meta has launched Muse Spark Open, an 816-billion-parameter open-weight AI model optimized for coding, agentic tasks, and long-horizon reasoning. The model supports a one-million-token context window and can run locally on two to four Apple M5 Ultra Mac Studios using Apple's MLX framework. Available for download and API access, Muse Spark Open allows developers to customize and deploy it on their own hardware. Meta describes it as the most capable US open-weight model to date, with safety measures and a license that permits broad use but restricts commercial API services above certain revenue thresholds.
