Instead of regime change, Trump has succeeded merely in swapping one Supreme Leader named Khamenei—the aging ayatollah whose killing Trump celebrated on the first day of the war—for another Supreme Leader named Khamenei, the ayatollah’s son, who appears to be even more of a hard-liner than his father was. As for the many, many other

Within my first six months of working at Cosmopolitan, I interviewed two celebrity beauty brand founders. In the four years since, I’ve met countless A-listers-turned-beauty-founders and tested every single one of their products, even the ones that made me go “huh?” At this point, launching a beauty brand feels like a celebrity rite of passage.

Dying for relevance and a hunger for cash…celebrities are starving to protect their profiles in an industry that is known to have a short attention span.

作者：HIBIKI，加密城市 Meta 重押 AI：祖克伯在用 Claude Code 寫程式 擁有 Facebook 、 Instagram 與 Threads 等社群平台的科技巨頭 Meta，近期正將公司資源全面投入生成式 AI 領域。 Meta 執行長祖克伯（Mark Zuckerberg）已開始親自使用 AI 寫程式工具 Claude Code 撰寫程式碼，打破了他多年未參與直接開發的紀錄。 外媒還爆料，Meta 公司內部最近也掀起一場消耗 Token 的競賽，許多工程師藉由大量消耗 Token 來衝高個人績效指標（KPI）。 AI 寫程式正夯，創辦人重返開發前線 祖克伯在 2026 年 3 月，向 Meta 的單一儲存庫提交了 3 次程式碼差異，這是他時隔 20 年來首度進行實質的程式碼貢獻。 祖克伯使用的是 Anthropic 開發的終端機寫程式助理 Claude Code CLI，其中一次提交獲得了超過 200 名工程師的批准。 他的行為，反映了 AI 寫程式工具正在吸引企業創辦人重新投入系統開發。

據彭博報道，Meta周三發布新一代人工智能模型「Muse Spark」，為行政總裁朱克伯格（Mark Zuckerberg）斥資數十億美元重組AI部門以來的首個重要產品。消息公布後，Meta（META）股價周三急升6.5%，收報612.42美元。 歷時9個月開發 Muse Spark由Meta新成立的Superintelligence Labs（MSL）團隊研發，該團隊由AI總監汪滔（Alexandr Wang）領軍。該模型歷時9個月開發，內部代號為「Avocado」。值得注意的是，有別於該公司過往開源策略，Muse Spark採用封閉式設計，不會對外公開其代碼及技術細節。 Meta高層承認，Muse Spark在部分領域仍不及OpenAI的ChatGPT、Anthropic的Claude或Google的Gemini，但強調這只是「發展軌跡上的早期數據點」，未來將推出更大規模型號。該模型提供「即時」、「思考」及「沉思」三種推理模式，擅長解答科學、健康及數學問題，但程式設計相對較弱。 訓練過程採Qwen等模型 此外，Muse Spark的訓練過程採用了阿里巴巴旗下開源模型Qwen，以及OpenAI和Google等第三方模型。Meta發言人回應稱，公司採用業界通用的「蒸餾」技術，並設有嚴格安全措施，透過學習公開模型，提升自身模型能力。 考慮未來推訂閱制收費 Muse Spark將用於改進Instagram、Facebook及WhatsApp等應用，目前已為早期購物助手搜索功能提供支援。Meta AI現時維持免費，但公司正考慮未來推出訂閱收費模式，並可能向開發者出售API存取權限。

記者鄧天心／綜合報導 Meta於週三正式推出名為Muse Spark的AI模型，Muse Spark是Meta超級智慧實驗室（Meta Superintelligence Labs）成立以來的首款模型，該實驗室於去年成立，據悉是因為執行長馬克·祖克柏（Mark Zuckerberg）不滿意Meta及其Llama模型的進度，認為其落後於OpenAI的ChatGPT和Anthropic的Claude。 為了迎頭趕上，Meta招攬了Scale AI的前共同創辦人兼執行長Alexandr Wang領導該實驗室，並斥資143億美元收購這家數據標註公司49%的股份，現在，正是祖克柏檢驗這支重組後的AI團隊能否贏得用戶青睞的時刻。 Meta 推出 Muse Spark 模型，143 億美元打造的超級智慧實驗室首戰。（圖／123RF） 「思考模式」與並行代理架構 Muse Spark目前已在網頁版和Meta AI應用程式中上線，並預計將持續進化。Meta計畫推出一項「思考中」（Contemplating）模式，旨在處理更複雜的問題，該模型採用多個AI代理（Agents）同時運作於同一任務的機制，Meta聲稱這能在不犧牲速度的前提下，提升思考模式的成效。 Meta在官方部落格中指出：「為了在不大幅增加延遲的情況下延長測試時推論（Test-time reasoning），我們可以擴充並行代理的數量，透過協作來解決難題。」 更多科技工作請上科技專區：https://techplus.1111.com.tw/ 科技社群討論區：https://pei.com.tw/feed/c/tech-plus 劍指醫療領域與隱私疑慮 雖然Meta是否會效法競爭對手將高性能模型設為付費制尚不明確，但該公司已緊跟產業趨勢，Meta表示，Muse Spark可協助用戶處理健康諮詢，這也是目前各大AI巨頭競相開發的領域。 然而，進軍醫療領域以及模型的基本登入機制可能引發隱私疑慮，用戶必須使用現有的Meta帳號（如Facebook或Instagram）登入才能使用Muse Spark，儘管Meta並未明確表示是否會調取社群帳號的個人資訊，但考量到Meta通常使用公開用戶數據進行訓練，且將Muse Spark定位為「個人超智能」產品，數據整合的可能性極高。 Meta強調，Muse Spark在視覺化STEM（科學、技術、工程、數學）問題上表現優異，能帶來「創新的互動體驗，例如開發趣味小遊戲或協助排除家電故障」。 除了對Scale AI的投資與挖角Alexandr Wang，祖克柏還從OpenAI、Anthropic和Google招攬了大量研究人員，市場普遍認為，如果Meta想在AI產業成為真正的競爭者，現在就是關鍵的勝負手。 祖克柏在Threads上寫道：「展望未來，我們計畫發布更先進的模型，包括新的開源模型。我們正在打造的產品不僅能回答問題，更能成為幫你辦妥事務的代理人。」 延伸閱讀： 顯示器產業產值破兆 卓榮泰：AI新十大建設打造「全民智慧生活圈」 資料來源：techcrunch
