Meta makes Muse Spark 1.1 available to consumers, debuts new Facebook features
Meta Platforms Inc. today made its latest large language model available to consumers through its Meta AI chatbot.
The update is rolling out alongside several enhancements to Facebook. Meta’s flagship social network is receiving a new video-based account verification tool. Additionally, users can now access the Facebook Marketplace e-commerce platform through a mobile app.
Meta AI is a free AI service with a similar feature set to ChatGPT. Today’s update switched the chatbot to Muse Spark 1.1, an LLM that Meta introduced earlier this month. The model supports prompts with up to 1 million tokens and can create groups of AI agents to tackle complex work.
According to Meta, the new version of Meta AI is better at tasks that require it to retrieve data from multiple sources. If the chatbot is asked to plan a trip, it can research destinations and check the user’s calendar for scheduling information. A consumer working on a kitchen renovation can ask Meta AI to find online furniture stores.
