**[Meta Repeatedly Delays Release of New AI Model for Developers]** Golden Finance reported on June 4 that, according to media citing insiders, Meta has repeatedly postponed its plans to release the API for its new Muse Spark AI model to developers. As of Tuesday, the API still does not have a confirmed release date. A Meta spokesperson stated on Wednesday that the company has begun testing the API with some early partners and is looking forward to releasing it this month. An API is a software interface used to define how two software systems interact. Meta's Head of Artificial Intelligence, Alexandr Wang, announced in an X platform post in April: "The Muse Spark API is coming soon." Meta launched Muse Spark in April, marking the company's first model designed to narrow the gap with competitors. Muse Spark is the first in a new series of models created by the company's Superintelligence Labs. Earlier this Wednesday, Meta released an AI agent designed to assist businesses with daily operations, signaling the company's ambition to compete with rivals such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Alphabet's Google (GOOGL.O).
