What Is Meta AI and Llama?
Two Halves, One Story
Meta AI is the assistant inside WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Messenger and the web. Llama is the family of open-weight models behind it, which anyone can download, study and run. One reaches billions where they already chat; the other powers a global open ecosystem.
Why It Matters
Zero-install AI in the apps people already open daily, plus genuinely open models that researchers, startups and hobbyists can self-host, fine-tune and inspect. Convenience and openness in one package.
What You Get
Chat, image generation (Imagine), photo analysis and web-grounded answers in-app; downloadable Llama weights and a growing set of hosted APIs for builders.
