Introducing Muse Spark 1.1

Meta released Muse Spark 1.1, a new AI model, along with an evaluation report. Developer Simon Willison created a plugin for the LLM tool to provide CLI and Python library access to the model.

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 : Tags: ai https://simonwillison.net/tags/ai , generative-ai https://simonwillison.net/tags/generative-ai , llms https://simonwillison.net/tags/llms , llm https://simonwillison.net/tags/llm , meta https://simonwillison.net/tags/meta , pelican-riding-a-bicycle https://simonwillison.net/tags/pelican-riding-a-bicycle , llm-release https://simonwillison.net/tags/llm-release
