Meta Postpones 'Behemoth' AI Model Amid Slowdown in AI Progress
Summary
Meta has postponed the release of its highly anticipated 'Behemoth' AI model, originally slated for summer, to fall or later, citing a slowdown in AI progress and a lack of significant improvements, potentially signaling that current scaling approaches for large language models may be reaching their limits.
Key Points
- Meta delayed the release of its large AI model 'Behemoth' from summer to fall or later due to lack of significant improvements
