Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg said the company would release Llama 3.1 405B as the first “frontier-level” open source AI model, along with the upgraded Llama 3.1 70B and 8B models. The text-only model will be available in the EU, Meta said. The models are multilingual and have been extensively tested.“This year, Llama 3 is competitive with the most advanced models and leading in some areas,” said Mr Zuckerberg. “Starting next year, we expect future Llama models to become the most advanced in the industry.”

He said open source was necessary for a positive AI future, and would ensure access to the benefits and opportunities of AI, without concentrating power in the hands of a small number of companies.
