Meta has been using “Llama” an AI program to enhance
the Air Force for a few years now, specifically in training aircraft mechanics
to work more efficiently. Also this program is used for battlefield planning for
the Air Force.
According to a new whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams
who was Facebook’s Director of Global Public Policy from 2011-2017, Zuckerberg
repeatedly lied to Congress about the use of the Llama program and who had
access to it.
In 2014 Zuckerberg had tried unsuccessfully to enter
Facebook into the Chinese market. The CCP thought it to be a waste of time and
therefore denied it. But Zuckerberg wasn’t finished trying according to Ms.
Williams. With the buildup of META’s AI on the horizon Zuckerberg had a trading
chip.
If he offered the CCP the same Llama program he could
have the wedge he needed to enter Facebook into China. Now according to Ms.
Williams China is Zuckerberg’s largest market next to the USA, but at what
cost?
If Zuckerberg is handing the same technologies to the
CCP as he to the Air Force doesn’t that threaten our national security?
I asked GROK (“X”’s AI program) about Military
Contracts to META and this was the reply:
Meta itself doesn’t directly hold
military contracts in the way traditional defense contractors like Lockheed
Martin or Boeing do. However, Meta has opened the door for its AI models,
specifically Llama, to be used by U.S. government agencies and defense contractors
for national security purposes. This marks a shift from its earlier stance,
where its policies explicitly prohibited using its tech for military
applications.
For example, Meta has partnered
with companies like Lockheed Martin, Palantir, and Booz Allen Hamilton,
allowing them to leverage Llama for tasks like data analysis, cybersecurity, or
mission planning. These collaborations don’t involve Meta signing direct
contracts with the Department of Defense but rather enabling third parties to
use its open-source AI for military-related work. This move has stirred debate,
especially since Meta’s tech is open-source, meaning it’s tough to control who
else—like foreign entities—might adapt it for similar purposes.
On the flip side, some argue
Meta’s involvement is more about staying competitive in the AI race, especially
with rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic also eyeing defense applications.
Critics, though, worry about the ethical implications of a social media giant
indirectly fueling military tech, especially given the lack of transparency
around how user data might feed into these models. Still, no hard evidence
points to Meta having formal, direct contracts with the Pentagon or other
military bodies—it’s more about enabling others to bridge that gap.
So there is no denial about META’s involvement in our
military with Llama, but where things go astray is who has access to that
program.
