Insight Beating AI Newsflash: Meta Superintelligence Labs has launched Muse Voice Transcribe. The tool integrates real-time speech-to-text, speaker diarization, and end-of-speech detection into a single model. It can process audio up to over one hour long and distinguish between more than 20 speakers simultaneously. In English real-time transcription tests by Artificial Analysis, its Word Error Rate (WER, lower is better) stands at 3.1%, outperforming GPT Live Transcribe (3.9%) and Gemini 3.5 Transcribe Live (4.0%). Muse Voice Transcribe delivers final text roughly 0.16 seconds after a speaker finishes talking. Unlike models that apply a fixed wait time for all words, this model processes 80ms of audio at a time, deciding autonomously whether to continue listening or start outputting. Simple words are transcribed faster, while complex terms wait for additional context to confirm. Meta uses reinforcement learning to optimize both accuracy and latency. The model is trained on over 70 languages, with 25 fully validated, and can directly recognize mixed Chinese-English speech in a single sentence. It is currently integrated into Meta AI for Mac and Muse Code, and the Meta Model API is open for access. Pricing is set at $3 per 1,000 minutes, equivalent to $0.18 per hour.

According to market data from BIT (bit.com), crypto-related stocks in the US pre-market session fell across the board. Among them: CRCL dropped 2.48%, MSTR fell 2.08%, MARA declined 2.44%, COIN dropped 1.83%, BMNR fell 2.57%, and HOOD declined 1.28%.

Liquid Capital founder Yilihua posted on social media that after Bitcoin failed to break the $81,000 resistance level a few days ago, he has been anticipating a pullback in the $75,500 to $76,000 range, after which he remains bullish toward the next resistance at $86,000. His market calls over the past few months have been largely accurate, but that does not guarantee future correctness. Every trade requires caution and a fresh approach; making mistakes is normal. Many argue that discussing market trends is too easily disproven, with a single error able to wipe out all gains, but pressing forward and continuous improvement embody the entrepreneurial spirit, and failure is an inherent part of the business process.

Beating AI Express: Agent collaboration app Raft developer Botiverse plans to pivot its strategy. Founder Richard Qian said that after the team spent about six months building Raft (formerly Slock), it once focused too much on growth and revenue. He bluntly admitted the team raised more funding than needed, and KOL marketing was also a mistake. In the coming weeks, Botiverse will open-source multiple internal projects and release Raft’s main repository source code, but will not accept external Pull Requests (PRs) for now. RC (Richard Qian) noted that agents are taking on increasing development work, making the traditional open-source collaboration model—where external developers submit code and maintainers review and merge it—no longer applicable. Botiverse has already made several projects public on GitHub, including Raft’s documentation, external Agent plugins, and application scaffolding. The Raft main repository is the part it announced will be opened next.
