  • Originally slated for April 2025, the launch was first moved to June and is now expected no earlier than autumn 2025, with no confirmed timeline.
  • Engineers within Meta have questioned whether Behemoth offers significant advancements over the Llama-4 series, prompting internal debates about its readiness for release.
  • Meta is reportedly considering restructuring its AI management team as confidence in its leadership is tested by these setbacks.
