Meta releases open-weight AI model Glimmer — democratizing AI access for developers.

Context

Meta has released Glimmer, an open-weight AI model that developers can download and run on their own hardware. This move contrasts with the company's more powerful Muse Spark model, which remains locked behind its own APIs. The release aligns with Mark Zuckerberg's vision of AI being 'for everyone' rather than controlled by a handful of labs.
