I wish they called it llamarama...

Great! Maybe I can finally learn what I'm suppose to be using generative AI for to be more productive. I'll be tuning in and spinning up whatever models/tools they suggest, but the longer this tech wave occurs the more confident I am that gen-ai is going to tally up to be an at-most 3% lift on global productivity.

It would be beneficial to have a hardware-optimized Llama lineup with a clearer naming scheme and distinct performance tiers, for example:
- Llama 4.0 Phone (Lite / Standard / Max) – For mobile devices.
- Llama 4.0 Workstation (Lite / Standard / Max) – For PCs and laptops.
- Llama 4.0 Server (Lite / Standard / Max) – For high-performance computing.
This approach would enable developers to select the appropriate model based on both device type and performance needs.
What do you think? For example now I feel like 3.3 70B is more for laptops/PCs, and the previous 3.2 3B for phones, is a bit confusing to me.

The “con” being the claims of “open source” when Llama is at best “weights available”. It’s not even “open weights” since it has a proprietary license. But I’m sure that won’t stop Yann LeCun from repeating lies about how Meta is the leader in open source AI.

3 years ago, Meta Connect in 2022 was a different atmosphere. [0] Almost no-one cared.
That was close to the bottom of Meta's stock price.

Odd timing - right in the middle of RSA in SF. Llama (and other US-trained open weight models) are key to national security and cybersecurity, and there's a built in audience 30 minutes away if this were two days later or two days earlier...

It's sad how we are letting Meta get away with their abuse of the term "open-source" for their open weights models. :-(

Dates are awfully close to ICLR, but I suppose the audiences don’t really overlap.

Can you imagine how many LinkedIn thought leaders are going to be in attendance? Perhaps the greatest gathering of minds since the Manhattan Project.

“Fellow kids” vibes from the dinosaurs at Facebook and Zuckerfuck.

For a moment I thought it said "LlamaCoin" lol
I wondered why so much support on HN all of a sudden.

Facebook cheering AI and those dinosaurs cheering that "meteor shower" - same vibe!
Given how good Llama 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 were I'm genuinely looking forward to news on Llama 4.
3.3 70B is the best model I've managed to run on my laptop, and 3.2 3B is my favourite model to run on my phone.
