Welcome back, Superhuman. Have you herd the news? Okay, terrible pun — but worth it, because a powerful new family of Llama 4 models just dropped over the weekend. And: I have good news and bad news about GPT-5. To pull the band-aid off quick, it’s taking longer than expected, but there’s a surprising upside.

1. Meta just dropped Llama 4: The social media giant showed off three versions of its long-awaited Llama 4 model, which each offer “unrivaled speed and efficiency” while being open to researchers. More details below.

2. Microsoft celebrates 50 years with revamped Copilot: The company just jolted its Copilot chatbot back into relevancy with some major updates. It can now remember details about your life, including food preferences, hobbies, and friends’ birthdays. And an “actions” tool can complete tasks for you, like buying tickets or filling out forms. Here’s a video with even more features, including AI-generated podcasts, vision capabilities, deep research, and customization.

3. Midjourney heats up image-gen race with V7: Almost a year since its last major upgrade, Midjourney is back with V7 Alpha, which was built on an entirely new architecture and, for the first time, lets you generate images just by talking to it. Plus, a new Draft Mode generates images at 10x the speed so you can brainstorm before landing on a final design. To try it out, you’ll first need to create a personalization profile here.

4. OpenAI is scrapping its original GPT-5 roadmap: CEO Sam Altman revealed that GPT-5 is still months away because it was harder than anticipated to integrate all of the company’s models into a single product. On the plus side, GPT-5 will be “much better” than even OpenAI was expecting. And the cherry on top: The full version of o3 as well as o4-mini are going to launch as separate models after all, and they’re only a couple of weeks away.

FROM THE FRONTIER

Llama 4 stampedes onto the scene

Meta didn’t even bother waiting until Monday. Over the weekend, it unveiled a new family of models, which you can try out in your browser — or on WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram. And if you’re developer, you can start building with it here.

Here’s a rundown of each one:

  • Scout: Built for efficiency, this one’s capable of running on a single Nvidia chip. It beats open-source rivals like Google’s Gemma 3, making it “the best multimodal model in its class.” And it has an industry-leading 10M-token context window, meaning it can theoretically handle longer documents and conversations.

  • Maverick: This one’s ideal for apps that involve both text and images, like a customer support bot that can analyze photo uploads. Plus, it works across 12 languages.

  • Behemoth: The most powerful of the bunch, this is the model the others were distilled from. Considered “among the world’s smartest LLMs,” it outperforms GPT-4.5 and Claude 3.7 across STEM-focused benchmarks. But it’s the only one that hasn’t been released to the public yet.

The backstory: The Information reported last week that the new collection was supposed to come out sooner but failed to meet internal benchmarks — a story we’ve heard repeatedly across the industry. To keep up with the competition, Meta allegedly took cues from China’s DeepSeek, which boosted R1’s efficiency by training different parts of its model to be good at specific tasks.
