Meta Seeks Funding from Microsoft and Amazon for Llama Model Development, Forms "Llama Alliance" to Cope with High AI Costs

Meta Platforms Inc. sought financial support from technology giants such as Microsoft and Amazon in the past year to share the training costs of its flagship large language model, Llama.

In return, Meta proposed that funders could have some influence on the development of Llama's features. This cooperation plan is called the "Llama Alliance" by Meta. Although the initial response was lukewarm, this move highlights that even wealthy technology giants are facing the huge investment pressure brought about by AI research and development. Meta's move reflects the current industry trend of intensifying competition and a sharp increase in funding needs in the field of artificial intelligence.
