Just saw the news, Meta released a new AI model called Muse Spark.

A few things that stood out:

It uses content from Instagram, Facebook, and Threads to personalize responses

It includes a shopping comparison feature

They brought in over 1,000 doctors to help train it for healthcare use cases

Meta claims it outperformed Google and OpenAI in some tests

As soon as the news hit, META popped nearly 6% during the session.

Honestly, Meta’s been pouring money into AI for a while, and it finally looks like they have something real to show for it. But whether they can truly catch up still depends on what comes next.

What do you think, is this the real deal or just more hype?
