Meta's AI System Llama Available to U.S. Allies
Meta, the company behind social media platforms, is letting its AI system Llama be used by its allies.
Think of Llama as a super-smart helper that can understand words, pictures, and sounds.
The U.S. government gave Llama the thumbs up for use by federal agencies.
Now, countries like France, Germany, and Japan, along with organizations such as NATO and the EU, can use it, too.
Meta is teaming up with other tech companies like Microsoft and Amazon to make this happen.
Meta's CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, hopes this strategy will lead to new products and more people using its social networks.
Meta is making its Llama AI system accessible to U.S. allies.
The system can process text, video, images, and audio.
Access includes countries in Europe and Asia, as well as NATO and EU institutions.
Meta will partner with other tech companies to provide Llama-based solutions.
Llama is available largely free of charge for developers.
