Artificial intelligence (AI) keeps getting better, bringing tools like LLaMA 4, ChatGPT, and Gemini into the spotlight. These are big names in the AI world, each trying to be the best.
Meanwhile, Meta AI has shown up as a simple, friendly tool on apps like Instagram and WhatsApp. This article explains what sets LLaMA 4, ChatGPT, and Gemini apart, and shows how Meta AI fits into these everyday apps, making it easy to see what each one brings to the table.
LLaMA 4, made by Meta, is a fresh and strong player in the AI game. It came out in 2025 with three versions: Scout, Maverick, and Behemoth. Scout is smaller, with 109 billion parts, perfect for simple jobs.
Maverick, with 400 billion pieces, does a great job with all sorts of tasks. Behemoth, still in the works, plans to take on tricky science and math problems. LLaMA 4 was trained on heaps of text, photos, and videos, using a clever blend of tricks to juggle things like writing and creating pictures at the same time. Tests prove Maverick outshines OpenAI’s GPT-4o in coding, reasoning, and chatting in lots of languages, making it a strong competitor.
LLaMA 4 powers Meta AI, which slots nicely into Meta’s apps. This free-to-use tool lets anyone adjust it for their own ideas, perfect for companies or personal projects.
ChatGPT, from OpenAI, has been the go-to AI for chatting for a while. Its latest version, GPT-4o, came before April 2025 and rocks at writing, thinking, and even making pictures. A special “Deep Research” mode digs into web info for detailed answers, something LLaMA 4 can’t do yet.
ChatGPT is free for simple things, but a $20 monthly fee gets extra perks like making more pictures and getting updates sooner.
ChatGPT stands out with clear, spot-on answers for stuff like stories or math. But free users run into limits quickly, and it needs its own app or website, not built into things like Meta AI. It’s a choice between powerful features and easy access.
Google’s Gemini, especially version 1.5, jumped in with a focus on facts and fresh info. Like LLaMA 4, it uses a mix of skills and comes in three flavors: Ultra for big jobs, Pro for everyday help, and Nano for phones.
Linked to Google’s search strength, Gemini gives fresh answers, topping ChatGPT’s outdated info and LLaMA 4’s still-growing tools.
It’s a solid choice, but more focused than flexible.
Meta AI, powered by LLaMA 4, brings handy AI tricks brings handy AI stuff right to Instagram and WhatsApp. On Instagram, swipe right in the DM tab, tap the search bar, and a chat pops up. Type something like “imagine a forest scene” to get a picture fast, though uploading pics only works in places like the U.S. for now.
On WhatsApp, just type “@MetaAI” in a chat with a request, like dinner ideas or summing up a file. It’s in 40+ countries as of April 2025, making chats better without needing a new app, unlike ChatGPT or Gemini.
LLaMA 4’s Meta AI is free and built into apps millions use, unlike ChatGPT’s paid extras or Gemini’s Google-only vibe. Power-wise, LLaMA 4’s Maverick beats GPT-4o in some tests, but ChatGPT wins at thinking and pictures. Gemini nails fresh facts but isn’t as all-around. Each fits a need: LLaMA 4 for free tweaking, ChatGPT for polished work, Gemini for quick facts.
LLaMA 4, ChatGPT, and Gemini show how wild the AI world is, no one tool rules them all. Meta AI on Instagram and WhatsApp makes LLaMA 4 easy for casual use. ChatGPT and Gemini suit folks wanting deep features or fresh info. As these tools grow, their unique styles will keep changing how AI helps out every day.
