Meta announces last major AI update of the year, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announces 70 billion new parameters The Llama 3.3 model performs about the same as its 405 billion parameter model, but is much more efficient, he says.
The new model expands the use cases for Meta’s Llama system, allowing more developers to build on Meta’s open source AI protocol, which is also becoming significantly more popular.
Mr Zuckerberg says: Llama is currently the most adopted AI model in the world, with over 650 million downloads. Meta is committed to open sourcing its AI tools to foster innovation, but it also ensures that Meta becomes the backbone of more AI projects, giving it more market dominance in the long run. You will gain strength.
The same is true for VR, where Meta is looking to strengthen its leadership. By collaborating with third parties, Meta is able to extend its offering on both fronts while establishing its tools as the market standard for the next phase of digital connectivity.
Zuckerberg also outlined plans for Meta to build a new AI data center in Louisiana, as Meta is also considering a new undersea cable project, while Zuckerberg also said that Meta AI currently has 600 The company said it is on track to become the most used AI assistant in the world, with over 1,000 AI assistants. 1 million monthly active users.
Although that may be a little misleading. Meta has more than 3 billion users across its family of apps (Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp), all of which have built-in AI assistants while also giving users a random chance to generate AI images in each app. Display a prompt.
So it’s no wonder that Meta AI has over 600 million users. What’s interesting is the data on how much time each person spends chatting with the AI
That’s because there aren’t many solid use cases for AI assistants in social apps. Sure, you can generate an image, but it’s not real, and it’s not a representation of what you actually experienced. You can ask Meta AI questions, but I doubt it will have much appeal for most regular users.
In any case, while Meta is committed to commercializing its AI tools, I still think the real value of their AI tools for the company will only be realized when VR becomes more accessible to more users. I think that might be the next step to consider.
On that front, Meta has moved on to the next stage of testing. Wrist-based surface electromyography (sEMG) device. Measures muscle activity from electrical signals from the wrist, enabling more intuitive control.
This could be a major advancement for Meta’s wearable push in both AR and VR applications. And when you consider that all of Meta’s various projects are building toward the next big change, it all starts to make more sense.
Basically, I don’t think Meta’s projects are tools themselves at this stage, but they all take users to the next level. A place where the meta is likely to become more and more dominant.
