Meta's New AI Model to Launch: Hybrid Open-Source & Closed-Source Strategy, Targeting Consumer Market via Social Platforms

Meta is set to release a new generation of AI models with a hybrid open-source and closed-source strategy: flagship models and exclusive technologies will remain internal, while fresh models will be made available to a wide range of developers. These models are the first Meta models led by former Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang, and their level is competitive with rivals.

Meta has a large potential consumer base through social platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, which is a major advantage over other AI companies. Therefore, Meta's AI strategy leans towards the consumer market, aiming to create value by bringing convenience to ordinary users.
