Legacy software, often described as 'big balls of mud,' has accumulated over decades, becoming difficult to maintain and understand. These systems rely on extensive teams to function, despite their outdated technology.

Meta is working on two proprietary frontier models: Avocado, a large language model, and Mango, a multimedia file generator. The open-source variants are expected to be made available at a later date.

For the past few years, artificial intelligence has been discussed almost exclusively in terms of models. Bigger models, faster models, smarter models. More recently, the focus shifted to agents, systems capable of planning, reasoning, and acting autonomously. Yet the real leap in usefulness does not happen at the model level, nor at the agent level. It happens one layer above, at the level of Skills.
