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
