Meta announced on April 8th the open-sourcing of the Llama-4 series, the latest milestone in its open LLM initiative.

The Llama-4 series includes three versions: Llama-4-Scout (109 billion parameters), Llama-4-Master (2 trillion parameters), and Llama-4-Ultra (2 trillion parameters). Llama-4-Ultra is the largest open-source model to date, with parameter scale 10x that of Llama-3's largest version.

In terms of performance, Llama-4-Master approaches GPT-6 levels across multiple benchmarks, while Llama-4-Ultra surpasses GPT-6 overall, particularly in complex reasoning and multi-step tasks. Meta simultaneously released a detailed training report disclosing the model used over 15 trillion high-quality training tokens.

Llama-4 adopts a new "Magnolia" open-source license—Meta's first customized license for AI models. The license explicitly prohibits model use for military purposes, autonomous weapons control systems, and targeted advertising, sparking industry discussion. Legal experts noted the license's enforceability within the open-source community remains to be seen.

Llama-4 model weights are now available for download, with enterprise customers able to apply for commercial licensing.
