There are a lot more details are in the [Muse Spark 1.1 Evaluation Report](https://ai.meta.com/static-resource/muse-spark-1-1-evaluation-report).

I had a few days of preview access which was long enough to put together [llm-meta-ai](https://github.com/simonw/llm-meta-ai), a new plugin for [LLM](https://llm.datasette.io/) providing CLI (and Python library) access to the model. Here's how to try that out:

```
uv tool install llm
llm install llm-meta-ai
llm keys set meta-ai
# paste API key here
llm -m meta-ai/muse-spark-1.1 "Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle"
```

Here's [that pelican transcript](https://tools.simonwillison.net/markdown-svg-renderer#url=https%3A%2F%2Fgist.github.com%2Fsimonw%2F4117330e4110279a172ed4876057816d):
