  • Meta Ships Muse Code Coding Agent and Muse Spark 1.2 Model

    Meta released Muse Code, a terminal-based coding agent, alongside Muse Spark 1.2, the model that powers it. The pair was co-trained to perform best together, with Muse Spark 1.2 showing significant gains on coding benchmarks compared to its predecessor. Muse Code runs as a command-line agent that handles multi-file software engineering tasks. It uses persistent background subagents that stay active across a session rather than spawning fresh for each task, which Meta says reduces latency on com

  • Meta Enters the AI Coding Wars with Muse Code and Muse Spark 1.2

    Meta has launched Muse Code, a terminal-based AI coding agent now in beta, alongside Muse Spark 1.2, a coding-focused update to its proprietary frontier model family. The two releases put Meta in direct competition with Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex, and the growing field of agentic coding tools that have become the default way many developers ship software. Muse Code is installable on macOS or Linux with a single curl command, though it requires a Meta account and billing details. Un

  • OpenAI report shows coding agents cutting science software runtimes

    OpenAI has published a field report documenting eight scientific computing projects where coding agents reduced software runtimes and modernized legacy codebases. The report covers projects in genomics, immunology, statistics, and RNA sequencing. Five of the projects used OpenAI's Codex autonomously, while three used a combination of Codex and Anthropic's Claude Code. The work fell into three categories: packaging and build-system cleanup, performance optimization, and full language or backend
