Apple and Meta have joined forces to make Muse Spark Open, a powerful U.S.-developed open-weight AI model, accessible on high-end Mac computers. Muse Spark Open, which contains 816 billion parameters, is the most advanced open-weight AI model currently available from Meta. The model will run locally on Mac Studio computers equipped with Apple’s M5 Ultra chips and will utilize Apple’s MLX framework.
This development comes after years of competition and rivalry between the two tech giants, who have clashed over privacy, advertising, and differing technology strategies. However, the partnership demonstrates a shift in which long-standing competitors are collaborating around AI technology. The model will be available free of charge under a license that permits commercial use, and Meta will also offer it through cloud providers and developer tools.
By running the AI model locally on Macs, Meta can avoid collecting users' prompts and data about how developers utilize the model, addressing some of the privacy concerns that have historically divided the two companies.
