Building off a legacy of open sourcing their products and tools to benefit the global community, this past July Meta launched Llama 2 as the next generation of their open-source large language model. Since its release, hundreds of thousands of download requests have signaled the importance of Llama 2 to the global developer community.
With open source being part of their DNA, Meta wants to expand that opportunity to even more organizations across the globe. That is why they are launching the Llama Impact Grants program. The goal of the program is to identify and support the most compelling applications of Llama 2 for societal benefit.
