Meta Platforms is reportedly considering partnerships with both OpenAI and Google to power AI features across its social media platforms. Leaders at Meta’s Superintelligence Labs are exploring the integration of Google’s Gemini model to handle conversational queries within Meta AI, its chatbot. Additionally, Meta is evaluating the use of OpenAI models to power AI-driven experiences across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger.
Partnerships are seen as interim boosts ahead of Llama 5 launch
These potential integrations appear to be temporary solutions while Meta works to advance its own AI technology. The company’s Superintelligence Labs is focused on developing Llama 5, Meta’s next-generation language model, intended to compete with industry rivals in AI capabilities.
Meta takes an “all-of-the-above” AI strategy
A Meta spokesperson emphasized the company’s multi-pronged approach: developing in-house AI models, building partnerships, and open-sourcing technology. Internally, Meta already uses external AI models—like Anthropic—for operational tasks such as a coding assistant. Reuters
