I have used the new open source Meta Llama3 AI model. It can generate images and you can edit the images by asking for changes to previously generated images. The system is faster and easier to use than many of the other image generators.
It is pretty good at math and coding.
It was able to solve various math problems. It is able to try to correct errors in problem solving when it makes a mistake and is told there is a particular mistake. The error correction is limited to the series of interactions within a session and while in a chain of questions on a particular problem.
Llama 3 is a highly capable system. It is especially good for a free to use open source model. Meta is training a bigger and better 405 billion parameter and multi-modal versions. Meta’s business strategy of making very good free large language models will seem to force all foundational large language models to be free.
Meta either has the most Nvidia H100’s chips with 350,000 or is very close to being tied for the lead with OpenAI-Microsoft.
The companies that want to charge for AI will need models or AI applications using proprietary data, exceptional customization for particular use cases or some other advantage.

Does it do Star Trek ships well?
That was a stumbling block:

Tesla: Has massive AI compute, has an AI product, has AI revenue stream
Meta: Has massive AI compute, does not have an AI product, does not have AI revenue stream
What am I missing? I seems like Meta has a big AI and no way to generate revenue from it. I don’t see how Meta is going to leverage their massive investment in to AI to make money. Honestly what am I missing? It feels like Google’s bottomless AI R&D project all over again.
If you ask it ‘Elon Musk grasping for a model of the globe like an evil dictator’ then how many fingers does he have?
Does anyone trust Meta?
They are probably only doing the classical customer lock-in by providing free in the beginning while pushing out competition by leveraging their huge resources.
The monetization comes later.
As a Mechanical design engineer I anticipate an AI that can do my job but have you seen anything like that?
Design a wood gate for my fence, and make a list of parts required. Make detailed drawings of any parts that needs to be manufactured.
Midjourney 6 is probably the best for graphics, progress is pretty good.
