Metadata
Summary
Meta's Llama is a family of open-source large language models including Llama 3 and Llama 4 variants, offering multimodal capabilities, extended context windows, and various model sizes for deployment across diverse use cases. The latest Llama 4 models feature native multimodality with early fusion architecture, supporting up to 10M token context windows. Models are freely downloadable and fine-tunable, positioning Llama as a major open-source alternative to proprietary AI systems.
Key Points
- •Llama 4 introduces native multimodality via early fusion, supporting combined text and image understanding with 10M-token context windows.
- •Model family spans multiple sizes (1B to 405B parameters), enabling deployment from edge devices to large-scale infrastructure.
- •Open-source licensing allows fine-tuning, distillation, and deployment anywhere, accelerating broad adoption and third-party development.
- •Includes safety-focused tooling via 'Llama Protections' and the Llama Defenders Program for responsible deployment.
- •Competitive benchmark performance: Llama 4 Maverick scores 80.5 on MMLU Pro and 69.8 on GPQA Diamond at low cost ($0.19–$0.49/Mtok).
