Meta has unveiled its latest advancements in AI with the Llama 4 family of models, consisting of Llama 4 Scout, Maverick, and the upcoming Behemoth. These models are designed for a variety of AI tasks, ranging from general chat to document summarization and advanced reasoning. Llama 4 Maverick, with 17 billion active parameters, is positioned as a general-purpose model ideal for image and text understanding tasks, making it suitable for chat applications and AI assistants. Llama 4 Scout is designed for document summarization.

Meta is emphasizing efficiency and accessibility with Llama 4. Both the Maverick and Scout models are designed to run efficiently, even on a single NVIDIA H100 GPU, showcasing Meta’s dedication to balancing high performance with reasonable resource consumption. TheSequence #530 highlights that Llama 4 brings unquestionable technical innovations. Furthermore, the Llama 4 series introduces three distinct models—Scout, Maverick, and Behemoth—designed for a range of use cases, from general-purpose reasoning to long-context and multimodal applications.

The release of Llama 4 includes enhancements beyond its technical capabilities. In the UK, Ray-Ban Meta glasses are receiving an upgrade to integrate Meta AI features, enabling users to interact with their surroundings through questions and receive intelligent, context-aware responses. Soon to follow is the rollout of live translation on these glasses, facilitating real-time speech translation between English, Spanish, Italian, and French, further enhancing the user experience and accessibility.

• twitter.com: Meta AI has released Llama 4 Scout & Llama 4 Maverick, and is previewing Llama 4 Behemoth. Llama 4 Scout is highest performing small model with 17B activated parameters with 16 experts. It’s crazy fast, natively multimodal, and very smart. It achieves an industry leading 10M+ token context window and can also run on a single GPU ! Llama 4 Maverick is the best multimodal model in its class, beating GPT-4o and Gemini 2.0 Flash across a broad range of widely reported benchmarks, while achieving comparable results to the new DeepSeek v3 on reasoning and coding – at less than half the active parameters. It offers a best-in-class performance to cost ratio with an experimental chat version scoring ELO of 1417 on LMArena. It can also run on a single host ! Previewing Llama 4 Behemoth , our most powerful model yet and among the world’s smartest LLMs. Llama 4 Behemoth outperforms GPT4.5, Claude Sonnet 3.7, and Gemini 2.0 Pro on several STEM benchmarks. Llama 4 Behemoth is still training, and we’re excited to share more details about it even while it’s still in flight. — , VP and Head of GenAI at Meta
