Meta, a leading tech giant, announced the release of Meta Motivo, an AI model designed to control human-like digital agents, potentially enhancing the metaverse experience. The company has invested heavily in AI, augmented reality, and virtual world technologies, raising its 2024 capital expenditure forecast to a record $37-40 billion. Meta is offering several AI models for developers to use freely, believing that open access will foster better tools for its services, ultimately benefiting its business.
Meta Motivo addresses common body control issues in digital avatars, enabling more realistic human-like movements. Additionally, Meta is introducing a new language modeling training model, the Large Concept Model (LCM), which separates reasoning from language representation.
