I noticed that Meta really has a problem with their AI ambitions. Last year, Zuckerberg announced that they would release their frontier AI model within a year, but now it seems they can't meet the deadline.
According to sources, the new AI model called "Avocado" did not reach the performance level of leading models from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic. We're looking at reasoning, coding, and writing capabilities—all of which still favor the competitors. That's probably why Meta decided to delay.
It's better than their previous models, but compared to Gemini 3.0 released last November? Still lacking. So they pushed back the launch from this month to at least May.
It's really interesting how this tech race is unfolding. AI development remains more complicated than before, and it's not just about who gets to market first—you really need performance. Meta is now in catch-up mode, and these delays show how tough the competition in the AI space really is.
