No big surprise that GPT-4 and Llama are competing big time!

InfoWorld.com reported that “Even as Meta touts its Llama model, the company is incorporating OpenAI’s GPT-4 to enhance internal tools and philanthropic ventures. Mark Zuckerberg has consistently championed Meta’s Llama AI model as a leader in generative AI technology, positioning it as a strong competitor to OpenAI and Google. However, behind the scenes, Meta is complementing Llama with a rival AI model to meet its internal needs.” The December 4, 2024 article entitled “Meta quietly leans on rival GPT-4 despite Zuckerberg’s bold Llama claims” (https://www.infoworld.com/article/3617048/meta-quietly-leans-on-rival-gpt-4-despite-zuckerbergs-bold-llama-claims.html) included these comments:

 The dual reliance on Llama and OpenAI raises questions about Meta’s broader AI ambitions. Zuckerberg has positioned Llama as a key player in what he calls the “model wars,” touting its open-source framework as a competitive advantage.

When Llama’s latest version was released mid-year, Zuckerberg stated it was “competitive with the most advanced models and leading in some areas.” He claimed Llama would be “the most advanced in the industry by next year.”

However, the integration of GPT-4 into key Meta tools suggests that Llama, while powerful, still has limitations, particularly in addressing diverse queries and providing robust support across various use cases.
