Mark Zuckerberg — AI will write most Meta code in 18 months
Meta has officially launched four Llama 4 models, immediately releasing the efficient Scout and Maverick variants while developing a massive two-trillion parameter "Behemoth" to distill intelligence into smaller, consumer-ready agents. The company is shifting its evaluation metrics from external leaderboards to internal product performance, prioritizing low-latency, full-duplex voice interactions and AI-driven content that reacts dynamically to user input across its billion-person ecosystem. By leveraging internal coding agents to accelerate development and advocating for a dual ad-supported and premium business model, Meta aims to narrow the gap with closed-source competitors while navigating infrastructure bottlenecks that will constrain the pace of an anticipated intelligence explosion.

Mark Zuckerberg — Llama 3, $10B models, Caesar Augustus, & 1 GW datacenters
Mark Zuckerberg, Caesar Augustus
Meta has launched its open-source Llama 3 family, featuring 8 billion and 70 billion parameter models that compete with leading benchmarks, while simultaneously integrating the new Meta AI assistant across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. To support these capabilities and future multi-agent applications, the company is rapidly expanding its hardware infrastructure to 350,000 GPUs and developing custom silicon to overcome energy and permitting bottlenecks. Founder Mark Zuckerberg emphasizes a strategic commitment to open distribution to mitigate concentrated AI risks, framing these technological shifts as fundamental changes to global productivity comparable to the invention of computing.
