Meta Invests Heavily in AI Research with Llama X and AMD's New Accelerators

Published on 4.17.25

Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a crucial role in shaping the tech industry, with major players like Meta investing heavily in AI research and development. Mark Zuckerberg's plan to expand Meta's AI efforts by hiring data architects, engineers, and creative technologists is a testament to the growing importance of AI in business performance. Meta's Llama X tool, currently under development, aims to monetize its AI models more effectively. The company has released several updates to its Llama models, including Llama 3.3 in December 2024, as it continues to invest in its AI research. AMD's new AI accelerators, including the Instinct MI350 and MI400, are expected to boost revenues and help the company close the gap with Nvidia's data center growth. With over 1 billion downloads of Meta's Llama models, it is clear that AI is becoming increasingly essential in the tech industry.
