Meta Platforms Inc. is making its artificial intelligence large language model, Llama 2, available for commercial use through partnerships with major cloud providers including Microsoft Corp.
Meta isn’t charging for access or usage of the model it developed, the company said. Instead, by opening up the technology to other companies, Meta says it will benefit from improvements that can be made when more developers use, stress test and identify problems with it.
