Meta, formerly known as Facebook, has announced a delay in the release of its highly anticipated AI model ‘Avocado,’ pushing the rollout to at least May or June this year. This decision comes as the company aims to enhance the capabilities of its AI technologies, positioning ‘Avocado’ between Google’s Gemini 2.5 and Gemini 3 in terms of performance.
Meta’s commitment to advancing AI is evident in its ongoing heavy investments in both AI research and chip development. The company’s long-term goal includes venturing into the realm of ‘superintelligence,’ a concept that underscores its ambitions in pushing the boundaries of AI capabilities.
This delay in the ‘Avocado’ rollout underscores the complexity and challenges associated with developing cutting-edge AI models, highlighting the meticulous approach tech giants like Meta are taking to ensure the quality and performance of their AI offerings.
