Leveraging the latest version of MLX, Muse Spark Open was optimized to run on Mac Studio with M5 Ultra, and together they’re the best way to run a powerful model on your own desktop.

Apple’s unified memory architecture lets the M5 Ultra's integrated GPU use up to 512 GB per Mac Studio, so two machines can hold an entire model. And the chip’s 1.2 TB/s of memory bandwidth is fast enough to read the small slice each token needs. The result is two Mac Studios behave like one supercomputer with a terabyte of unified memory.

We tested a range of agentic workflows running entirely on-device, using Muse Code powered by Muse Spark Open, including shipping real iOS changes to Ice Cubes (an open-source Mastodon client) — bug fixes, new features, full build — and driving DaVinci Resolve end to end, with the model reviewing footage frame by frame to find the strongest moments and crop them vertically.

However, as we described in our recent alignment assessment, building evaluations that reliably catch every failure prior to deployment remains an unsolved problem. We see signs that Opus 5.5 often suspects it is being evaluated, which challenges our ability to assess how it will act in the vast variety of real-world settings it is deployed in. As these settings expand and model capabilities increase, we expect this challenge to grow, unless we make progress on interpretability.

One CLI that takes the working tree you already have, runs it somewhere else (a container, a VM, an SSH host, or a managed sandbox), and streams the result back, so you get an edit-run loop without writing a CI job for every iteration. MIT licensed, coordinator runs on your own Node plus Postgres or on Cloudflare Workers, and it claims 81 providers. Their line is "Crabbox Software Is Free. Compute Isn't."

In May, Gemini broke containment and hacked three different companies, but Google didn’t disclose the incident until the Wall Street Journal approached the company. The hacks happened during a test of the model’s cybersecurity capabilities run by third-party Irregular, which was also involved in similar incidents involving Meta and OpenAI.

According to WSJ, Google didn’t disclose the hack because it didn’t consider it to be an “example of model misalignment.” The company said that it was an instance of “mistaken identity,” and once the model realized it had brute-forced its way into a real company by guessing a password, it stopped. “In this case, the model acted appropriately,” Google VP of Security Engineering Heather Adkins said.

Lightweight, beautiful and user-friendly interactive prompts
>_ Easy to use CLI prompts to enquire users for information▌

  • Simple: prompts has no big dependencies nor is it broken into a dozen tiny modules that only work well together.
  • User friendly: prompt uses layout and colors to create beautiful cli interfaces.
  • Promised: uses promises and async/await. No callback hell.
  • Flexible: all prompts are independent and can be used on their own.
  • Testable: provides a way to submit answers programmatically.
  • Unified: consistent experience across all prompts.
