Meta unveiled **Muse Spark**, its first AI model from the newly created Meta Superintelligence Labs, positioning the company back into the generative‑AI race after the poorly received Llama 4. According to Meta‑published benchmarks, Muse Spark holds its own against leading models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google on many tasks, though it does not dominate every category. The launch follows a major reorganization that saw a $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI, the hiring of Alexandr Wang as chief AI officer, and a sizeable talent‑acquisition push aimed at accelerating Meta’s multibillion‑dollar AI push.
Muse Spark is a **reasoning‑capable, multimodal model** that can ingest and generate both text and images, and it can orchestrate sub‑agents to tackle complex problems step‑by‑step. For now the model is tightly integrated into Meta’s own ecosystem—powering the Meta AI app, meta.ai, and slated for rollout to WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Messenger and Ray‑Ban AI glasses—while a limited “private preview” API will be offered to select partners. Meta frames the model as “small and fast by design,” a testbed for an architecture it intends to scale to larger, more powerful successors, and hints that future versions may be open‑sourced.
Benchmark results show Muse Spark is **competitive but not yet superior**: it scored 89.5 % on the GPQA Diamond PhD‑level reasoning test (behind Gemini 3.1 Pro and Anthropic/OpenAI rivals) but led on the HealthBench Hard health benchmark with 42.8 %. Meta acknowledges gaps in long‑horizon agentic systems and coding workflows, and stresses ongoing safety work—its model refused 98 % of bioweapon‑related requests and displayed high “evaluation awareness,” though third‑party auditors deem this a non‑blocking concern. The release reflects Meta’s broader strategy of rebuilding its AI stack, reducing compute needs, and establishing a “scaling ladder” where each generation validates the next, all under the dual leadership of Wang’s Superintelligence Labs and Maher Saba’s applied AI engineering unit.

#Mercor says 30k work on its platform each week, #ScaleAI claims to have over 70k “M.A.’s, #PhD and college graduates.” Surge AI advertises Supreme Court litigators, McKinsey principals, and platinum recording artists. Experience in #law, #finance, & #coding, areas where AI is making rapid inroads. But also hiring people to produce data for practically any job you can imagine.

Meta recortará 30 % del presupuesto del metaverso
Meta planea recortes del 30 % para su metaverso, según Bloomberg, y sube un 4 % en bolsa
SN Redacción | EFENueva York.- Meta, la empresa matriz de Facebook, Instagram y WhatsApp, se prepara para reducir hasta en un 30 % su presupuesto destinado a su iniciativa del metaverso, informó este jueves Bloomberg, provocando que la tecnológica subiera un 4 % en Wall Street esta mañana.
El metaverso ha sido una de las apuestas más importantes del director ejecutivo de la compañía, Mark Zuckerberg, quien cambió el nombre de la empresa de Facebook a Meta en 2021 para reflejar su enfoque en la realidad aumentada y virtual.
Desde 2020, la unidad del metaverso ha consumido más de 60.000 millones de dólares en inversión, generando críticas sobre la sostenibilidad de la estrategia, recoge Bloomberg.
Según ese medio, los recortes presupuestarios forman parte de la planificación anual de Meta para 2026 y se discutieron durante una serie de reuniones celebradas en la residencia de Zuckerberg en Hawái el mes pasado.
La magnitud del ajuste -hasta un tercio del presupuesto de metaverso- podría implicar despidos durante el primer trimestre de 2026, agrega.
El anuncio se produce mientras Meta busca mantenerse relevante en la carrera por la inteligencia artificial (IA), en medio de críticas a su modelo Llama 4 y presiones por consolidar sus inversiones.
Con todo, Meta ha seguido invirtiendo en IA y a principios de este año lanzó su Superintelligence Lab incorporando a Alexandr Wang, director ejecutivo de Scale AI, como parte de una inversión de 14.300 millones de dólares que le otorgó a la empresa un 49 % de participación en la startup.
Este movimiento buscaba fortalecer la posición de Meta frente a competidores en un mercado cada vez más competitivo, donde la IA se ha convertido en un elemento central.
Durante años, Meta apostó fuertemente por la construcción de su universo digital paralelo y Zuckerberg llegó a asegurar que el metaverso era «la próxima frontera, tal como lo fueron las redes sociales cuando comenzamos». –sn–

Meta investierte 14,3 Mrd. Dollar in Scale AI – nun bröckelt die Partnerschaft. Statt Superintelligence Labs gemeinsam voranzutreiben, sucht Meta neue Datenpartner.

Why did #Meta go in $14.3 billion on #ScaleAI? They're betting on data labelling. AI training sets can be incomplete, inaccurate, or offensive, so it's up to humans to fine-tune the models. To train an expert AI, we still need human expertise. spectrum.ieee.org/data-labelin...

"Scale AI is basically a data annotation hub that does essential grunt work for the AI industry. To train an AI model, you need quality data. And for that data to mean anything, an AI model needs to know what it's looking at. Annotators manually go in and add that context.
As is the means du jour in corporate America, Scale AI built its business model on an army of egregiously underpaid gig workers, many of them overseas. The conditions have been described as "digital sweatshops," and many workers have accused Scale AI of wage theft.
It turns out this was not an environment for fostering high-quality work.
According to internal documents obtained by Inc, Scale AI's "Bulba Experts" program to train Google's AI systems was supposed to be staffed with authorities across relevant fields. But instead, during a chaotic 11 months between March 2023 and April 2024, its dubious "contributors" inundated the program with "spam," which was described as "writing gibberish, writing incorrect information, GPT-generated thought processes."
In many cases, the spammers, who were independent contractors who worked through Scale AI-owned platforms like Remotasks and Outlier, still got paid for submitting complete nonsense, according to former Scale contractors, since it became almost impossible to catch them all. And even if they did get caught, some would come back by simply using a VPN.
"People made so much money," a former contributor told Inc. "They just hired everybody who could breathe.""
