Meta says it plans to deploy its third-generation custom AI chip, MTIA 450, in data centers in the first half of 2027. The company says it will then broadly roll out MTIA 500 by the end of that year. The announcement describes future deployment rather than an operating installation, and provides no capacity, performance or cost comparison for either processor.
