Summary

Meta was secretly using Google's Gemini for customer service, ad tools, and content moderation because it outperformed their own Llama models, until Google cut off access due to excessive capacity usage.

Saw this article today and it genuinely surprised me Meta has been using Gemini for customer service, ad tools, content moderation, all of it. and apparently chose it because it worked better than their own Llama models and then Google cut them off because Meta was consuming too much capacity. Now employees are being told to watch their token usage. This is the same company that was pushing staff to use more AI just a few months ago. Idk man, of all the companies to run out of AI capacity
