Meta: 'Watermelon' Model Development Progressing Smoothly

Meta's Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer Alexandr Wang stated that the newly released Muse Spark 1.3 is priced the same as Muse Spark 1.2 but is more efficient, requiring 25% fewer tokens to operate. Meta has not yet decided whether to release the weights for Muse Spark 1.3, but the company still plans to make the weights for Muse Spark 1.2 public. The company is continuing to develop the larger-scale 'Watermelon' model as planned. 'We believe that Watermelon will be highly competitive,' he said. (Sci-Tech Innovation Board Daily)
