Meta prices Muse Spark 1.1 API at $1.25/$4.25 per million tokens, undercutting OpenAI and Anthropic
Meta's first paid API model, Muse Spark 1.1, is priced at $1.25 per million input tokens and $4.25 per million output tokens, significantly cheaper than OpenAI's GPT-5.5 ($5/$30) and Anthropic's Opus 4.8 ($5/$25). The pricing makes it attractive for applications that don't require frontier-level intelligence, though the comparison is limited to API costs and may not reflect total cost of ownership.

Meta Sued Over Training Data for Its AI and Face-Recognition Systems
Families in Illinois and California filed a proposed class action in federal court in Chicago alleging Meta extracted biometric data from Facebook and Instagram photos without consent to build the unreleased NameTag face-recognition system for smart glasses and to train generative AI models Emu and Muse Image. The suit invokes Illinois' Biometric Information Privacy Act, seeking $5,000 per intentional violation, and could cover millions of users. Meta calls the lawsuit meritless and denies building a central face database.
