Meta jumps into AI coding market in effort to chase Anthropic and OpenAI
Summary
Meta released Muse Spark 1.1, an updated AI model designed for coding and agentic work (AI that can autonomously perform multiple tasks), as it competes with OpenAI and Anthropic. The model is now available through a public preview via a developer portal with aggressive pricing ($1.25 per million input tokens, $4.25 per million output tokens), though Meta is initially limiting API access to its own properties rather than third-party platforms.
