Meta's open-weight Glimmer runs local agents at 50 tok/s on a MacBook
TimDarcet · x · 2026-10-08
A contributor shared a technical presentation on Muse Glimmer, Meta's open-weight model for local agents. The pipeline: pretrain → reasoning midtrain → LC (131k) → SFT → RL distillation → RL, with a soft-distilled Spark during training and synthetic data for agentic and privacy use cases. With 4-bit quantization plus DFlash it reaches 50 tok/s on a MacBook. Full video and tech report coming; the author worked on midtraining.
