Did Muse 1.3 Just BEAT Gemini 3.8 Flash & Fable 5.1?!

Gemini 3.8 Flash and Meta’s Muse Spark 1.3 both arrived right after Fable 5.1 — and this AI week is officially out of control. In this video, I compare Gemini 3.8 Flash vs Muse Spark 1.3 across coding, agents, Minecraft tests, benchmarks, pricing and availability. I also cover Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber and the major asterisk behind Muse 1.3’s headline DeepSWE result. Comment “GEMINI” or “MUSE.” Whichever wins, I’ll test first against Fable 5.1. 🔔 Subscribe to ByteForward: https://dub.sh/bytefwd OFFICIAL SOURCES Google launch: https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/gemini-models/3-8-flash-and-3-8-flash-cyber/ Gemini developer guide: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/latest-model Meta Muse Spark 1.3: https://research.meta.ai/blog/introducing-muse-spark-1-3 Meta evaluation methodology: https://research.meta.ai/static/muse-spark-1-3-multimodal-evaluation-methodology Artificial Analysis: https://artificialanalysis.ai/articles/gemini-3-8-flash The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/988742/google-gemini-3-8-flash The Decoder: https://the-decoder.com/gemini-3-8-flash-is-googles-third-budget-model-in-six-weeks-while-frontier-models-remain-mia/ OFFICIAL X POSTS Google launch: https://x.com/Google/status/2095175518068904380 Google workhorse thread: https://x.com/Google/status/2095193915523551652 Gemini app availability: https://x.com/GeminiApp/status/2095176192307691835 Flash Cyber: https://x.com/Google/status/2095212784678256901 Cyber benchmarks: https://x.com/Google/status/2095212788251496479 Chrome / Cloud / Wiz: https://x.com/Google/status/2095212793414742258 Fairwind access: https://x.com/Google/status/2095212795851612322 Cyber patching: https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/2095196708254658820 Zuckerberg on Muse: https://x.com/finkd/status/2095232032896946311 Muse capabilities: https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/2095234385129963666 Muse Code / API: https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/2095234387273269349 Open-weights roadmap: https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/2095234388619579765 Muse Code install: https://x.com/alexandr_wang/status/2095259709603455435 Muse 1.3 reaction: https://x.com/alexandr_wang/status/2095252118450155530 Artificial Analysis — Muse index: https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/2095247787277553929 Cost per task: https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/2095247790154887329 Agentic gains: https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/2095247793183166917 Tau3-Bench: https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/2095247795829756006 Gemini benchmarks: https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/2095177433150562780 COMMUNITY COMPARISONS Gemini + Muse vs Fable: https://x.com/aindrei/status/2095265627992940939 What a week: https://x.com/rynorhn/status/2095264532432089388 Three frontier models: https://x.com/amir_mir93/status/2095264526597841018 Muse DeepSWE reaction: https://x.com/spencermateega/status/2095264243784581568 Muse Max vs Gemini: https://x.com/jiahanjimliu/status/2095264028247617914 Index / price: https://x.com/DanDr1s/status/2095264013470834780 DeepSWE comparison: https://x.com/DanDr1s/status/2095235133963960672 Price + benchmarks: https://x.com/Layton_Gott/status/2095243553303932978 Muse vs Gemini vs Qwen: https://x.com/Adamlags/status/2095244903534191094 “Dethroned” reaction: https://x.com/YashasGunderia/status/2095235922644340933 Price / coding benches: https://x.com/elstar4x/status/2095243805867884860 Both vs Opus: https://x.com/MitchJones_/status/2095240454971224432 Closed / gated releases: https://x.com/saffat_corp/status/2095263341539414435 Compare all three: https://x.com/PrathapChowdry/status/2095263359482368134 Gemini vs Muse: https://x.com/juleshatton/status/2095241082556633276 Gemini vs Muse pricing: https://x.com/reinforce2020/status/2095251708956033294 VIDEOS / GAME TESTS Gemini Minecraft: https://x.com/luckeyfaraday/status/2095265027460899028 Muse Minecraft: https://x.com/mihawkxxxxx/status/2095265144792100960 Muse procedural Minecraft: https://x.com/mihawkxxxxx/status/2095262053778727378 Muse beats Gemini claim: https://x.com/Joelc_eth/status/2095261262774943856 Minecraft / DeepSWE: https://x.com/bisheshab/status/2095260482580148339 Muse vs Gemini speed: https://x.com/SPAC89/status/2095236813765878068 Antigravity game test: https://x.com/gota_bara/status/2095260476150095987 NOTE: Community comparisons are uncontrolled creator tests. Company benchmark claims should be read with their published methodology. Muse Spark 1.3 Max reasoning was not available at launch; Meta said it would come after additional safety testing. The Astra line in this video is a joke, not a release-date claim.
