Summary

In this video, Pat Simmons provides a detailed review and testing of Meta’s new Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full AI models. He compares them against Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Fable 5.1, and GPT-6 Astra across four tasks: a website clone, a product launch campaign, an iPhone app, and a 3D Starship launch. The video covers benchmarks from artificial analysis and other tests, cost analysis, access methods, and usage limits. Muse Wonder Full performs poorly on the website clone, but the overall assessment is nuanced. The creator also highlights the strict usage limits of the $50/month Muse Code subscription. He provides all prompts and generations in a blog post.
