"The team has been working on the development for six months. Bosworth emphasized during a press conference that the models are performing "very good," although they are not yet ready for use. "They're basically six months into the work, not quite even," said the CTO. Meta is reportedly working on a text model codenamed Avocado and an image-and-video model called Mango."
"Bosworth acknowledged that there is still "a tremendous amount of work" to be done after training. "There's a tremendous amount of work to do post-training" for AI, "to actually deliver the model in a way that's usable internally and by consumers." the CTO explained. Still, Meta is seeing positive results from its investments. Bosworth called 2025 a "tremendously chaotic year" for building the lab and infrastructure and for acquiring energy. According to Bosworth, 2026 and 2027 will solidify consumer AI trends."
Meta's Superintelligence Labs has internally delivered initial AI models after about six months of development. The models are described as promising and performing "very good" but are not yet ready for use. The models include a text model codenamed Avocado and an image-and-video model called Mango. Meta recruited more than 50 engineers and researchers, including four former OpenAI scientists, with recruitment packages up to $100 million. Llama 4 faced criticism for its performance, increasing pressure to regain competitive ground. Substantial post-training work remains, and 2026–2027 are expected to solidify consumer AI trends.
