# Meta Launches Muse Image and Muse Video with Agentic Generation

> Meta has launched Muse Image and Muse Video, and the twist is in the word agentic. Rather than generating a picture in one shot, Muse Image can pause to run a web search or execute code, checking facts and rendering details it would otherwise fumble. The result, Meta says, is accurate QR codes that actually scan, infographics with legible text, and consistent multi-reference compositions, all long-standing weak spots for image models. The self-refinement loop matters because the failure modes of generative imagery have been stubbornly persistent: garbled words, invented data, faces that drift between frames. Letting the model reach for tools mid-generation is a different philosophy from simply training a bigger network and hoping accuracy follows. Muse Video, meanwhile, has climbed to third on the text-to-video Arena leaderboard and is rolling out to creators. Whether the agentic approach becomes the norm or a clever detour, it reframes image generation as something closer to a reasoning task than a single creative guess.
