Meta releases 'Muse Spark Open' - anyone tried it yet?

research.meta.ai

Just saw this on the front page. Looks like an open weights release. Has anyone benchmarked it against what you're running locally? Interested in real world coding and tool use not just leaderboard numbers.

benchmarks mean nothing, I only care if it can follow a long agent loop without going off rails

cost wise running local vs api, for me local only makes sense if you use it 8h a day
