With LLaMA V2, Meta may be trying to benefit from the open-source community, similar to what Google has done with Android.

The Financial Times, citing three sources familiar with the project, reports that Meta wants to launch a commercial AI model to compete with OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google. The model is said to generate language, code, and images.

It may be a new variant of Meta’s LLaMA, a large language model used in numerous open-source projects. LLaMA v1 has only been released under a research license and therefore may not be used directly for commercial purposes. However, replicas exist.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has already announced that a new AI model is in the works, which could be LLaMA v2 or under a different name. Meta wants to use the model for its services and offer it to external interested parties, according to Zuckerberg. Special attention is safety.

    Oh great, an LLM trained on Facebook private messages and designed to spy on everyone who interacts with it, sounds charming. Thanks Zuck.
