Meta has made a major change in allowing its open-source AI, Llama, to be used in U.S. national security efforts.
Meta is partnering with companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Palantir, Lockheed Martin, and Oracle to integrate Llama AI into national security projects.
Oracle will use Llama for technical document analysis, while Scale AI will utilize it for strategic planning and threat identification.
This policy change comes after reports of China using an older version of Llama AI for defense work, and Meta's decision aims to establish international standards and keep the U.S. at the forefront of AI development.
