Meta Announces Release of Llama 3 Model in Parts, Not One Major Release, Confirms Executive

Meta is set to release Llama 3 within a month, as confirmed by a company executive. This marks the arrival of the AI model following Llama 2 by a year.

Unlike a single major release, Llama 3 will be rolled out in parts, as reported by Yahoo News. Meta emphasizes that Llama 3 is not just one model, but a combination of several models. According to the company, "There will be a number of different models coming out over the course of this year with different capabilities."

Previously, Llama versions were open source models, with many open source projects utilizing a Llama language model. It is anticipated that Llama 3 will continue this trend, although Meta has not provided specific details. There has been no mention of the performance or changes in Llama 3 compared to the current Llama 2.
