Meta releases Muse Spark Open with 1M context, faces competition

Meta has released Muse Spark Open, an 816B-total / 42B-active Mixture-of-Experts model with a 1 million token context window. This model is designed for coding, long-horizon agents, and multi-step reasoning, accepting text, image, video, and audio inputs. While it leads among US open-weight models on some benchmarks, it lags behind competitors like GLM-5.3 and Kimi K3 in agentic evaluations. The model is available under a custom license that includes attribution requirements and a separate agreement for certain commercial uses. AI

IMPACT Sets a new benchmark for open-weight models in context window length and multi-modal capabilities, potentially influencing future research and development.
