Introducing Muse Image and Muse Video, the first media generation models developed by Meta Superintelligence Labs.
Muse Image is our most advanced image generation model yet. It follows instructions faithfully, edits with precision, composes from multiple references, and draws on Instagram for social context. It also brings agentic tool use capabilities to image generation and integrates with Muse Spark.
You can try Muse Image in the Meta AI app and web, as well as in Instagram Stories and WhatsApp – starting in limited countries with more locations on the way.
Today we’re also previewing Muse Video, which is built upon the same pretraining base as Muse Image to deliver exceptional visual fidelity with native audio support.

$META - META: AI UPSIDE KEEPS BUY CASE STRONG
BofA reaffirmed its Buy rating on Meta with an $835 price target.
The firm sees further upside from stronger AI models, MTIA chip progress, and new AI monetization opportunities. Better-than-expected Q2 results could reinforce AI-driven ad growth, while greater clarity on AI infrastructure value may support a higher valuation. Meta still trades below its recent peak multiple, leaving room for upside.

We're not rebuilding the same pad for New Glenn. We're moving to a horizontal/vertical hybrid configuration to get us flying again this year at 36A. We were already working on something similar for 9x4 at 36B. Let me explain what that means. We mate the stages horizontally in the Integration Facility (IF). Then we bring the integrated vehicle out to the pad, use a crane to perform the vertical breakover, and mate the payload once New Glenn is vertical. This new ConOps has the added benefit of increasing our flight cadence as well.
AST SPACEMOBILE SELECTED AS WINNER OF J-LEO 🚀

¿Cómo funciona Vodafone SAT?
La tecnología direct-to-device permite que un smartphone convencional se conecte directamente a satélites cuando no existe cobertura terrestre. El objetivo es extender la conectividad a lugares y situaciones en los que la red no está disponible, desde zonas rurales y entornos marítimos hasta emergencias, transporte, industria, agricultura o defensa.
🔺 Sin antenas externas.
🔺 Sin dispositivos especiales.
🔺 Sin una tarjeta SIM adicional.
Vodafone SAT. Del satélite a tu móvil 🛰️
🛰 Vodafone SAT. Del satélite a tu móvil.📱
Avanzamos hacia el lanzamiento en España de servicios de conectividad satelital, fruto del acuerdo comercial alcanzado con Satellite Connect Europe.
Vodafone SAT está diseñado para reforzar la resiliencia de la red y extender la conectividad a zonas de difícil acceso y situaciones excepcionales, permitiendo que un smartphone convencional se conecte directamente a satélites cuando no exista cobertura terrestre.
En las próximas semanas comenzaremos a convertir esta tecnología en aplicaciones reales junto a empresas, administraciones públicas y sectores estratégicos, desde emergencias y seguridad hasta agricultura, transporte, defensa, industria, entornos marítimos y zonas rurales.
El servicio podría estar disponible comercialmente en 2027, sujeto a la evolución del marco regulatorio y a la disponibilidad del espectro necesario.
