Overview:

Meta has announced its new free and open-source large language model (LLM), Llama 3.2, during Meta Connect 2024.

About Llama 3.2: 

  • It is an open-source large language model developed by Meta.
  • Features
    • It has both image and text processing abilities.
    • It includes voice interaction features, allowing users to engage in conversations with the AI using voice commands.
    • This model includes both small and medium-sized variants at 11-billion and 90-billion parameters as well as more lightweight text-only models at 1-billion and 3-billion parameters that fit into select mobile and edge devices. 
    • Out of the different Llama 3.2 variants, the 11-billion parameter one and the 90-billion parameter one are vision models and can understand charts and graphs, caption images and locate objects from natural language prompts.
    • The bigger model can also pinpoint details from images to create captions. 
  • Applications: The models will help developers create more advanced AI applications like AR apps with a real-time understanding of video, visual search engines that distribute images based on content, or document analysis tools that can summarise large portions of text.

Q1: What are Large Language Models (LLMs)?

A large language model (LLM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) program that can recognize and generate text, among other tasks. LLMs are built on machine learning: specifically, a type of neural network called a transformer model.
