# Llama 4 Maverick (17B-128E) is living in August 2024

Llama 4 Maverick (17B-128E) (Meta): published training cutoff August 2024; released 5 April 2025.

- 900 AI events after its cutoff (239 major, 52 historic), as of 2026-10-07; 29 of them before its launch.
- 283 AI models in the model registry released after its cutoff; 767 days of news.
- Coverage before 2026 is thin (34 entries for 2024 and 77 for 2025), so this count is a floor.

Caveat: Published cutoffs can overstate what a model knows. https://postcutoff.com/cutoff/
