Meta's Response
Following Meta's submission to LMArena, there were discussions about the interpretation of Meta's policies regarding the submitted model. Meta's VP of generative AI, Ahmad Al Dahle, addressed these concerns, refuting claims that the company trained their model on test sets. As of now, Meta's Llama Maverick experimental model is ranked second on LMArena, tied with other models.
Introducing Scout and Maverick
The Llama 4 family currently consists of two models: Scout and Maverick. These models are open-weights and multimodal, capable of generating text, images, and code. Scout, designed to run on a single Nvidia H100 GPU, features a 10 million token context window and 17 billion parameters. Maverick, the larger of the two models, boasts 17 billion parameters and 128 experts.
Meta plans to unveil more models from the Llama 4 family, including a base model named Behemoth and a reasoning model, in the near future. CEO Mark Zuckerberg hinted at more information being shared at LlamaCon, the company's upcoming AI developers conference.
