Meta AI Research

Meta AI Research supports fundamental and applied research in artificial intelligence, with a focus on open science and responsible AI development. Meta invests heavily in AI research across areas like large language models (LLaMA), computer vision, robotics, and multimodal AI.

For ZHC builders, Meta's AI Research provides access to state-of-the-art open models like LLaMA 3, PyTorch ecosystem tools, and research collaborations. While Meta doesn't have a traditional grant program, they offer compute credits, research collaborations, and access to their AI infrastructure for academic and research projects.

Focus Areas

• Large language models and NLP
• Computer vision and multimodal AI
• Robotics and embodied AI
• AI safety and responsible AI
• Open source AI tools

ZHC-Specific Fit

✅ Excellent for:

• Research using LLaMA models
