Meta bets on open AI to rebalance power with free access

TL;DR Summary
Meta Platforms returns to an open AI strategy, releasing the weights of Muse Glimmer and planning to publish weights for Muse Spark, while Mark Zuckerberg argues for distributing free, capable AI to billions to counter the power of large institutions and rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic; the move accompanies a $1 billion fund for communities hosting its data centers as it expands AI infrastructure, even as investors weigh Meta’s high AI spending and cash-flow impact.
