META
Meta Launches an Open-Weight AI Model Built to Run on Macs
Meta has released Muse Spark Open, “the most capable US open-weight model to date,” designed to run locally on Apple computers.
Details:
Muse Spark Open has 816 billion parameters and a 1 million-token context window.
On benchmarks, the model shows competitive performance against other popular open-weight models, such as Qwen 3.8, GLM 5.3, and Kimi K3.
The model is natively multimodal and built for complex coding tasks and agentic labor. Although it is designed to run locally on Apple’s computers, doing so requires a lot of power (at least 1 terabyte of RAM).
Meta says Muse Spark Open is optimized to run on the Mac Studio powered by M5 Ultra.
It is available now through Hugging Face.
Apple and Meta joining forces is unexpected, given the long history of clashes between the two companies over privacy and the future of computing. Meta AI chief Alexandr Wang said they are “excited for mommy and daddy to be playing nice again,” and explained that the two companies have been working together for several months. Wang also left the door open for future collaborations, saying the two companies will team up wherever it “makes sense.”

Amazon’s Bee Launches Two Personal AI Devices Starting at $75
Bee, the AI wearable company acquired by Amazon last year, has introduced two new devices designed to record everyday conversations and turn them into summaries, reminders and actionable tasks.
Details:
The $74.99 Bee Frontier can be worn on the wrist or pinned to clothing, while the $99.99 Bee Eclipse is a credit card sized device that attaches magnetically to the back of a smartphone.
Both devices use AI to capture important details from conversations, create summaries and generate tasks. They can help users remember plans, take lecture notes or organize follow up actions after appointments.
The free service includes conversation summaries and 14 days of memory. A $11.99 monthly Bee Pro subscription adds unlimited summaries, suggested to dos, daily memories, a personal chat assistant and integrations with Amazon, Alexa+ and third party apps.
Bee integrates with Gmail, Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook to help draft emails, schedule meetings and identify action items. Users can also connect Alexa or upload photos and link Apple HealthKit data for additional context.
The Bee Frontier is available now on Amazon, while the Bee Eclipse is expected to follow soon. The launch puts Bee in competition with AI note taking devices such as Plaud or Pocket, with a lower starting price and deeper integration into Amazon’s ecosystem.
AI Tutorial
ChatGPT Can Now Use Your Chrome Tabs to Get Things Done for You
ChatGPT’s Google Chrome extension just got an upgrade that allows it to use the browser tabs you already have open.
Install the ChatGPT Chrome extension and follow the setup instructions.
Open the tabs you want ChatGPT to work with in Chrome.
Open ChatGPT in the web or desktop app and tag Chrome in your prompt so it can use information from your open tabs.
OpenAI shared some sample queries you can try:
“Fill out the form I have open in @chrome ahead of seeing my new dentist. Also, can you add the appointment to my work and personal calendar.”
“@chrome Compare the three couches I have open by dimensions, material, delivery time, and return policy.”
“@chrome Put the vendors in these tabs into my comparison sheet, with pricing, key features, and source links.”
“@chrome Look at all the tabs I have open and compare the contractor services. Then draft an email to the one that fits my home renovation.”
OpenAI has also updated ChatGPT in the sidebar, giving you “the full power of ChatGPT” and your entire conversation history in Chat or Work without leaving the page you’re viewing. Additionally, it now lets ChatGPT Work “control” your Chrome tabs for tasks like “sending messages, filling out forms, or downloading files.”

😬 Someone asked AI how it would reduce violent crime in the USA by 99% if it were in complete control and not constrained by morals or ethics.
The latest in AI and Tech
The streaming platform is developing a toggle that will hide AI-generated tracks, albums, and related artists from search results, with the feature expected to launch before the end of 2026.
YouTube Music is rolling out labels that show whether AI was used to create a song’s composition or vocals, with additional details available by clicking the label. The system distinguishes fully AI generated tracks from music made partly with AI, focusing on transparency rather than restricting monetization.
The company is donating $5 million to the Simons Foundation as part of a $15 million initiative with Anthropic to help mathematicians evaluate and build on AI generated research. They also pledge to provide access to their models and computing resources to Simons Foundation-supported researchers.
Australian startup Apate uses thousands of AI agents posing as potential victims to engage scammers across calls, messages, emails and social media, collecting details such as bank accounts, crypto wallets and malicious websites. The company says its agents have wasted 17 years of scammers’ time across 2.5 million conversations, helping banks, telecom companies and government agencies strengthen fraud prevention.
That’s a wrap!
