An official release brings Hugging Face model updates — worth tracking for capability changes, ecosystem impact, and follow-up.
Meta has released Muse Glimmer, a new multimodal model designed for local, agentic use cases.…
Great news from the OGs of open source LLMs! Muse Glimmer, released today, is Meta’s new multimodal model, especially designed for local agentic use cases. Distilled from Muse to 30B parameters, and released under the Apache 2.0 license, it’s ideal deploying locally for privacy, reducing costs, or just hacking around. It’s intended for privacy-aware applications such as coding, document analysis, personal assistants, Claw- or Hermes-like setups.
To celebrate, we are shipping with Meta day-0 support in transformers, llama.cpp, vLLM, Inference Endpoints, and other libraries. We built a few cool things and explain our findings in this blog.
Check out the demos below for inspiration.
You can find Muse Glimmer on the Hugging Face Hub.
