What to expect from Llama 3?
Meta initially introduced Llama 2 to the public in July 2023, marking its foray into open-source models. With Llama 3, Meta aims to address previous model limitations while introducing new functionalities. Llama 3 boasts a significantly larger scale, potentially surpassing 140 billion parameters, enhancing its capabilities and reasoning abilities. The model is expected to provide more accurate answers and handle a broader spectrum of questions, including contentious ones.
Similar to its predecessors, Llama 3 will remain open-source, allowing developers free access to integrate it into their solutions. However, Meta’s text-to-image/video generation tool, Emu, remains accessible only to select users despite these advancements.
