Meta’s Superintelligence Labs have released some models internally, CTO Andrew Bosworth tells Reuters.

The models «show a lot of promise» and are «very good,» he says.

Meta has been rumored for a while to have a couple of models in the works, including the Avocado model for text and an image/video-focused model named Mango.

These models now seem out of training are showing promise internally.

Bosworth also warns that there’s «a tremendous amount of work to do post-training.»

Meta hasn’t launched a new model since Llama 4 in April 2025, but Bosworth is hinting to Reuters that 2026-27 are «important years for bringing consumer products to market.»
