Recent reports from The New York Times and internal leaks reveal Meta has delayed its "Mango" image-and-video AI model—alongside the text-focused "Avocado"—due to underwhelming performance on complex tasks compared to rivals like OpenAI's GPT series and Google's Gemini. Initially targeted for first-half 2026 release following December 2025 Wall Street Journal disclosures and January internal deliveries by Meta's new AI team, timelines have slipped to at least May amid iterative testing and reliance on external models like Gemini for some Meta AI queries. Trader sentiment reflects this uncertainty in the competitive multimodal AI landscape, with key catalysts ahead including potential Q2 announcements or developer previews that could signal progress toward public rollout.

Meta is developing a new frontier image and video-focused AI model codenamed “Mango”. You can read more about that here: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/meta-bets-mango-avocado-ai-224956071.html
This market will resolve to "Yes" if Meta makes a new frontier AI model for image and video generation, or any model confirmed by Meta to be the model codenamed “Mango” during development, available to the general public by the listed date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No."
A frontier AI image and video model refers to a newly released Meta model that Meta describes as one of its most capable or next-generation, general-purpose flagship models for both image and video generation.
A qualifying model must be a general purpose model for image and video generation. Models which are focused on a specific aspect of image or video creation (e.g. computer vision or video segmentation) will not qualify.
Upgrades or successors to previous Meta models (e.g. Emu or SAM) will not count unless explicitly confirmed by Meta to be the model codenamed “Mango” during development or described by Meta as a frontier AI model for both image and video generation.
For this market to resolve to "Yes," the relevant model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling free waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice. The release must be clearly defined and publicly announced by Meta as being accessible to the general public.
A publicly-confirmed integration of a qualifying model into one of Meta’s primary AI buttons or portals (e.g. Instagram or Whatsapp) will qualify as a public release.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Meta, with additional verification from a consensus of credible reporting.Recent reports from The New York Times and internal leaks reveal Meta has delayed its "Mango" image-and-video AI model—alongside the text-focused "Avocado"—due to underwhelming performance on complex tasks compared to rivals like OpenAI's GPT series and Google's Gemini.
