On February 24 2022, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta is launching its own AI model called Llama ( "Large Language Model Meta AI). Llama is intended to assist engineers and scientists with exploration of applications for AI such as summarizing documents and answering questions. Unlike Chat-GPT 3 which has 175 billion parameters, Llama has 7 billion to 65 billion parameters, hence it is likely to be less costly to operate. Also, unlike Google's LaMDA and OpenAI’s ChatGPT models which aren't public, Llama's model will be made open to the research public.<ref>https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/24/mark-zuckerberg-announces-meta-llama-large-language-model.html</ref> | On February 24 2022, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta is launching its own AI model called Llama ( "Large Language Model Meta AI).
