The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Meta[5] AI Research's post 'Introducing Muse Code and Muse Spark 1.2' is dated August 5, 2026 and says the model 'is available today in Muse Code and in Meta Model API'; Artificial Analysis[4] and OpenRouter[6] carry the same day.
Notes Muse Code was released alongside Muse Spark 1.2 on 5 August 2026 (Reuters), that the contributor tier lets Meta[1][5] retain submitted data (Business Insider), and that Zuckerberg said Muse Spark 1.2 would be released as open weights while the smaller open-weight Muse Glimmer shipped on 10 August (CNBC).

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
