US EditionMeta delays release of its 'Behemoth' AI model, WSJ reports
- Meta Platforms delayed the release of its Behemoth AI large-language model to fall 2025 or later, postponing an earlier April launch in California.
- Meta postponed the launch due to internal concerns about Behemoth's underwhelming performance and struggles to improve it beyond previous versions.
- Behemoth, described as Meta’s most powerful model with 288 billion parameters, was initially planned to debut at Meta’s first AI developer conference in April 2025.
- Meta stated Behemoth is the "highest performing base model in the world" and outperforms GPT-4.5 on STEM benchmarks but confirmed they are "still training" it.
- The delay may allow Meta to refine Behemoth amid intense AI competition and risks raising questions about the return on its multibillion-dollar AI investments.
