Meta COOKED! Llama 4 is out! Llama 4 Maverick (402B) and Scout (109B) - natively multimodal, multilingual and scaled to 10 MILLION context! BEATS DeepSeek v3🔥 Llama 4 Maverick: > 17B active parameters, 128 experts, 400B total parameters > Beats GPT-4o & Gemini 2.0 Flash, competitive with DeepSeek v3 at half the active parameters > 1417 ELO on LMArena (chat performance). > Optimized for image understanding, reasoning, and multilingual tasks Llama 4 Scout: > 17B active parameters, 16 experts, 109B total parameters > Best-in-class multimodal model for its size, fits on a single H100 GPU (with Int4 quantization) > 10M token context window > Outperforms Gemma 3, Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite, Mistral 3.1 on benchmarks Architecture & Innovations > Mixture-of-Experts (MoE): First natively multimodal Llama models with MoE > Llama 4 Maverick: 128 experts, shared expert + routed experts for better efficiency. Native Multimodality & Early Fusion: > Jointly pre-trained on text, images, video (30T+ tokens, 2x Llama 3) > MetaCLIP-based vision encoder, optimized for LLM integration > Supports multi-image inputs (up to 8 tested, 48 pre-trained) Long Context & iRoPE Architecture: > 10M token support (Llama 4 Scout) > Interleaved attention layers (no positional embeddings) > Temperature-scaled attention for better length generalization Training Efficiency: > FP8 precision (390 TFLOPs/GPU on 32K GPUs for Behemoth) > MetaP technique: Auto-tuning hyperparameters (learning rates, initialization) Revamped Pipeline: > Lightweight Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) → Online RL → Lightweight DPO > Hard-prompt filtering (50%+ easy data removed) for better reasoning/coding > Continuous Online RL: Adaptive filtering for medium/hard prompts All model on Hugging Face - time to COOK!

BREAKING: Meta's Llama 4 Maverick just hit #2 overall - becoming the 4th org to break 1400+ on Arena!🔥 Highlights: - #1 open model, surpassing DeepSeek - Tied #1 in Hard Prompts, Coding, Math, Creative Writing - Huge leap over Llama 3 405B: 1268 → 1417 - #5 under style control Huge congrats to @AIatMeta — and another big win for open-source! 👏 More analysis below⬇️
Today is the start of a new era of natively multimodal AI innovation. Today, we’re introducing the first Llama 4 models: Llama 4 Scout and Llama 4 Maverick — our most advanced models yet and the best in their class for multimodality. Llama 4 Scout • 17B-active-parameter model with 16 experts. • Industry-leading context window of 10M tokens. • Outperforms Gemma 3, Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite and Mistral 3.1 across a broad range of widely accepted benchmarks. Llama 4 Maverick • 17B-active-parameter model with 128 experts. • Best-in-class image grounding with the ability to align user prompts with relevant visual concepts and anchor model responses to regions in the image. • Outperforms GPT-4o and Gemini 2.0 Flash across a broad range of widely accepted benchmarks. • Achieves comparable results to DeepSeek v3 on reasoning and coding — at half the active parameters. • Unparalleled performance-to-cost ratio with a chat version scoring ELO of 1417 on LMArena. These models are our best yet thanks to distillation from Llama 4 Behemoth, our most powerful model yet. Llama 4 Behemoth is still in training and is currently seeing results that outperform GPT-4.5, Claude Sonnet 3.7, and Gemini 2.0 Pro on STEM-focused benchmarks. We’re excited to share more details about it even while it’s still in flight.

LLMs will transform collaborative workflows across Enterprise teams, from customer success through product to legal. A simple example here with @dust4ai's XP1 on @RevolutApp's Community. Not perfect, but promising for custom apps that will interface with existing APIs/Services.

Thank you @jivraj_sachar - great timing for this pod with @htaneja to come out, as we spend the week w founders in India! Many gems - + Inflecting thru' growth mindset + Curiosity as a foundation + Serendipity vs prepared mind + Vendor enabling vs re-wiring a space 1/n
.@htaneja is one of the most distinguished names in the global VC world. We decode much of his thought process through this spectacular ep. @generalcatalyst is increasingly focusing on investing in India & there could be no better time to launch this than when GC is in India!

Please read this thread and then read this story about black children being charged with a crime that doesn’t exist and the mass jailing of little kids. propublica.org/article/black… I’m so disturbed I can’t even try to summarize everything that’s wrong here. 👇🏾
Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls. One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails. Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)

Thoughts upon reading arxiv.org/abs/2106.15590: In this paper, the authors compare highly-cited papers from 2008-2009 with papers from 2018-2019 published in NeurIPS and ICML and summarize the values (i.e., desirable aspects) highlighted in those papers. 1/

This is very normalized in my culture. The first time I asked an American friend to errand hang with me, she was so shocked I felt like I did something wrong. That’s when I learned in American culture, expecting company for mundane reasons is considered not independent enough.

I’m seeing a massive disconnect (more so than usual) between the two twitter worlds I usually inhabit — the US and India. It is important to bridge the two now for a very important reason: #CovidIndia Please read the whole thread and amplify. THREAD 1/17

President Trump has left the White House for the last time. Note: He began his political career peddling the racist conspiracy theory that the first black president wasn’t born in the US. He ends his term with the first black and South Asian woman VP coming into the WH. Poetic.

Josh, let me explain Capitalism to you. Sometimes people decide not to do business with you. It's their decision. You know the whole "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service" thing ? In your case it happens to be "No Principles, No Honesty, No Book" thing. Feel free to Self-Publish

Some people ask: Why would you impeach and convict a president who has only a few days left in office? The answer: Precedent. It must be made clear that no president, now or in the future, can lead an insurrection against the U.S. government.

Sen. Cruz, you must accept responsibility for how your craven, self-serving actions contributed to the deaths of four people yesterday. And how you fundraised off this riot. Both you and Senator Hawley must resign. If you do not, the Senate should move for your expulsion.
The attack at the Capitol was a despicable act of terrorism and a shocking assault on our democratic system. We must come together and put this anger and division behind us. We must, and I am confident we will, have a peaceful and orderly transition of power. My full statement:

Forget Russia’s interference in '16. Or Trump’s impeachment for asking Ukraine to dig up dirt on Biden. Arguably the biggest political scandal we’ve ever seen in this country is unfolding right before our eyes -- even if it's failed to gain traction nbcnews.com/politics/meet-th…

Great partnership with Google on getting PyTorch working at peak performance on mobile devices. It’s so cool to see PyTorch working with Android’s Neural Networks API — and I can’t wait to see what the community does with it: medium.com/pytorch/pytorch-m…
