Meta's Muse Spark 1.2 rapidly rose to frontier-tier with top 5 ranking on Vals Index at $0.69/test, being 3x cheaper than Kimi and 10x+ cheaper than Fable, Opus, and 5.6 Sol. It achieved gold-medal-level performance in five STEM Olympiads with perfect theory scores in APhO and IPhO, emphasizing "no tools" and multi-agent orchestration. Meanwhile, OpenAI unified its ChatGPT models under GPT-5.6 Sol, introducing a reasoning-effort slider and expanding free-tier access with unlimited text chats on GPT-5.6 Luna. OpenAI also launched Agent Plugins, an open standard for bundling agent skills, supported by partners like AWS, Cursor, GitHub, and Vercel. These developments highlight a shift towards combining model quality, orchestration, pricing, and serving capacity as key adoption factors.
