Meta releases open-weights Muse Glimmer model with 30B parameters

SiliconANGLE 2 months ago 41 ● 4 sources

Meta released Muse Glimmer, an open-weights language model designed to run on personal computers and Macs. The 30B-parameter model was compressed to under 20GB of RAM by quantizing weights to 4 bits. Meta says it now supports faster inference via speculative decoding and improved reliability through retry training on failed tasks, with performance tested on two dozen AI benchmarks.

Meta’s Muse Glimmer fits on a laptop

Meta released Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter open-weight model meant to run agentic workflows on local hardware. It can run on a single consumer GPU and the smallest official K-Quant configuration targets 17GB of memory, while full precision needs over 55GB. Developers can deploy local “always-on” agents that offload routine work to Glimmer and reserve Spark for harder tasks, but they must manage a longer, versioned deployment chain plus additional developer security controls.
