I know everyone hates on Meta but they just released an open weight 800B parameter model: Muse Spark Open.

Their smaller 30B parameter open model Muse Glimmer has also been out for a few weeks and is highly competitive with Qwen 3.8 27B.

So I hope we will start seeing more open models from US labs especially in the sub-20GB category which can be deployed on daily use machines.
