Meta Platforms’ new artificial intelligence lab has delivered its first high-profile AI models internally this month, the company’s chief technology officer said on Wednesday. At a press briefing on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, CTO Andrew Bosworth said the models built by its Meta Superintelligence Labs team, formed last year, showed a lot of promise. “They’re basically six months into the work, not quite even,” Bosworth said, adding that the team’s AI models were “very good”. Media outlets reported in December that Meta was working on a text AI model codenamed Avocado slated for a first-quarter launch, along with an image and video-focused model codenamed Mango. Bosworth did not specify which models were delivered internally. Meta’s efforts are being closely followed since CEO Mark Zuckerberg moved to shake up its AI leadership, form a new lab and poach talent with sky-high offers, hoping the company can win in the highly competitive technology frontier.
