I think we are not going to simmer down on the AI news anytime soon. Meta has introduced a new set of its Llama-3 models that will also enhance Meta AI. Meta introduced it in two sizes: Llama-3 with 8B parameters and Llama-3 with 70B parameters. In addition to this, they also offer a context length of 8K tokens. As per Meta’s Community License Agreement, these are all open-source.
According to Google, its 8B model is superior to Google’s Gemma 7B and Mistral 7B models. Even the Llama-3 70B model beats Gemini 1.5 Pro but by a very small margin. It even has a better score than the Claude 3 Sonnet in the MMLU benchmark.
Recently, you must have come across Meta AI. Meta is in the process of rolling it out on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and the web. It is widely available on WhatsApp currently. This is also a part of its Llama-3 models. This means that Meta is going headstrong with making its AI models very popular.
