Muse Glimmer: Meta's 30B agent fits under 20GB, cloud optional
Meta open-sourced Muse Glimmer, a 30B agentic model that runs offline on a single consumer GPU. Quantization keeps it under 20 GB; a DFlash drafter delivers up to 3.1x faster decoding on an RTX 5090, and the weights are on Hugging Face under Apache 2.0.
