Llama 4 Behemoth
v2025-02Meta
Meta's announced 2T-total/288B-active parameter Llama 4 teacher model that was NEVER RELEASED. It remains 'announced, not released' as of June 2026: Meta gave no update when asked in January 2026 and has effectively exited open-weight frontier releases, shipping the proprietary closed-weight 'Muse Spark' (April 2026) instead. Scores reflect unverifiable preview-era claims; the model is not available for any deployment.
Trust Vector Analysis
Dimension Breakdown
🚀Performance & Reliability+
Preview-era claims: exceptional mathematical reasoning (95% MATH) and strong general knowledge (73.7% MMLU). The model was never released, so these results cannot be independently verified.
Industry-standard coding benchmarks
Advanced mathematical and scientific reasoning benchmarks
Crowdsourced comparisons and knowledge testing
Internal testing with repeated prompts
Median latency on recommended hardware
95th percentile response time
Official specification from provider
User-controlled deployment
🛡️Security+
Good baseline security with self-hosted deployment offering full control. Additional safety layers recommended for production.
Testing against prompt injection attacks
Testing against adversarial prompts

Review of deployment best practices
🔒Privacy & Compliance+
Exceptional privacy with self-hosted deployment. Full control over data residency, retention, and compliance. No data shared with Meta.

⚙️Operational Excellence+
Operational scores are largely theoretical: the model was never released, so no deployment, support, or ecosystem exists for it. Meta shipped the closed-weight Muse Spark (April 2026) instead.

Review of license terms
- +Industry-leading mathematical reasoning (95% MATH)
- +Strong general knowledge (73.7% MMLU)
- +Complete data sovereignty with self-hosted deployment
- +Open-source model with full transparency
- +No data retention or sharing concerns
- +Can achieve HIPAA and other compliance requirements
- !Requires significant infrastructure for deployment
- !Higher latency than smaller models (~2.8s p50)
- !Uptime and performance depend on hosting infrastructure
- !Requires expertise to deploy and maintain
- !No managed API service from Meta
- !Large model size requires substantial compute resources
- !Never released: still announced-only as of June 2026; Meta gave no update in January 2026 and pivoted to the closed-weight Muse Spark (April 2026), so weights are unavailable
