Meta Superintelligence Labs released Muse Glimmer on August 10, 2026, a 30-billion-parameter open-weight model under the Apache 2.0 license. Designed for local AI agents, it runs on consumer GPUs on Mac or PC without internet. The model focuses on function calling, local coding, and long tool-use sessions. Weights are available on Hugging Face, with upcoming integrations for llama.cpp, MLX, and ExecuTorch. This launch aligns with Mark Zuckerberg's AI manifesto and open-source strategy, attracting White House attention.
