[AINews] Muse Spark 1.3 matches GPT-5.6-Sol, confirming Meta Superintelligence as the newest Frontier Lab, >90% discount for training

Meta's Muse Spark 1.3 reportedly ranks as the world's #3 model, matching frontier models from OpenAI and Anthropic with planned open weights.

The Latent Space AI News roundup leads with Muse Spark 1.3, promised in Zuckerberg's letter, which ranks #3 worldwide per AAII, is slated for open weights, and uses a pricing model over 90% cheaper when users opt in to training. The issue also covers the rumored Gemini 3.8 Flash launch and analysis arguing OpenAI's rumored looped-transformer 'Astra' architecture is a modest tweak rather than a breakthrough. Additional coverage includes ByteDance Seed's HarnessDev harness-evaluation benchmark, a retrieval-invoked actual-use evaluation method, Stanford's revamped agent engineering curricula, and Photon 2.1 adding TTS models and NVIDIA B200 support.

Google’s Gemini 3.8 Flash takes on bigger AI models at a lower cost

Google released Gemini 3.8 Flash with a security-focused Cyber variant that produces 2.6x more correct patches and found a critical vulnerability in under two hours.

Google launched Gemini 3.8 Flash for developers and a gated Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber model reserved for vetted security teams through the new Fairwind program. The company says the model beats most larger frontier models on the DeepSWE v1.1 engineering benchmark at lower cost, and Chrome Security reports the Cyber variant produced 2.6 times more correct patches than the best commercial models while Google's Cloud Vulnerability Research team found a critical foundational vulnerability in under two hours. The models show significant prompt-injection robustness gains measured by Gray Swan and carry CBRN misuse safeguards, with cyber-offense restrictions on the standard version. Pricing matches Gemini 3.7 Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens.

Google releases Gemini 3.8 Flash, its third Flash model in six weeks

Google releases Gemini 3.8 Flash, topping the DeepSWE coding leaderboard six weeks after 3.7 Flash, alongside the cybersecurity-focused 3.8 Flash Cyber.

Google shipped Gemini 3.8 Flash, its third Flash model in six weeks, placing it at the top of the DeepSWE software engineering leaderboard. The companion Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber showed a reported 2.6x patch accuracy increase for the Chrome security team and found a critical vulnerability in two hours, but is limited to trusted testers and governments. Gemini 3.8 Flash improved over 3.7 Flash on the OSWorld-2.0 computer-use benchmark yet remains far behind Claude Opus.

llm-gemini 0.34

llm-gemini 0.34 adds support for Google's new Gemini 3.8 Flash model with configurable low, medium and high thinking levels.

Simon Willison released llm-gemini 0.34, a plugin for the LLM CLI that adds the gemini-3.8-flash model, including low, medium and high thinking levels, and fixes an issue where async responses failed to record the resolved model version. The release coincided with Google's launch of Gemini 3.8 Flash, plus a Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber variant restricted to trusted defenders. Willison noted the Flash tier's speed, low cost and competence at HTML and JavaScript generation tasks.
