I wonder why Meta keeps publishing their models for free. They don't seem to be doing much with their own research. What's the benefit for them then?

I think their strategy is to weaken their opponent by building strong opensource models, they know they have lost the race to Microsoft and trying to go open source so people would not use other models.

Good point! I would also attribute it to disconnected company teams working on their own thing without integrating it into other products.
