Ask HN: 10 months since the Llama-4 release: what happened to Meta AI? 55 points by Invictus0 7mo ago ↗ HN I understand Llama 4 was a disappointment, but what's happened at Meta since then? Their API is still waitlist-only 10 months on.
[–] verdverm 7mo ago ↗ I recall rumors that those people they hired at astronomical figures are just fucking around because they know Marc will look bad if he fires themThe most likely reason is internal dysfunction, they certainly have the resources to keep the same release pace [–] v-erne 7mo ago ↗ Isn't this something straight out of Sillicon Valley show ?

[–] joriJordan 7mo ago ↗ Meta research released updated segmentation models a few months ago:https://github.com/facebookresearch/sam-3d-objectshttps://github.com/facebookresearch/sam3IMO that's far more valuable to the ecosystem than more AIaaS [–] [dead] abdul_levo 7mo ago ↗ [dead]
[–] hasperdi 7mo ago ↗ AFAIK Zuck got mad and restructured the whole department.What's likely is that there won't be anything open / significant coming out from them anymore [–] red-iron-pine 7mo ago ↗ "getting Zuck'd"
[–] dhruv3006 7mo ago ↗ Poor leadership I will say. So much funds and still they could not do better.
[–] casey2 7mo ago ↗ Weird that Zuck is still huffing the open platform copium when everyone outside the US uses deepseek
[–] BoredPositron 7mo ago ↗ History suggests that when Zuck takes a personal interest in a project, it tends to derail. Metas AI initiative might be headed for the same fate as his previous obsessions.
[–] egorfine 7mo ago ↗ I wonder why they did not yet rename themselves to "AI" or "Llama" because surely Metaverse ("Meta") is not a hot thing anymore?
