Summary

Meta Superintelligence Lab released a new AI model on Monday called Muse Ember, the lab’s lightest and most cost-efficient AI model yet. In its release, Meta said Ember was “designed for complex reasoning execution and the work agents repeat all day: tool calls, coding subtasks, routing, extraction, and long document parsing. ” Meta particularly emphasized Ember’s cost-per-task, using Artificial Analysis’s composite benchmark score to show Ember as cheaper and smarter than competitors like Anthropic’s Haiku and OpenAI’s Luna.
