meta's benchmaxing tendencies are well known. llama4 was mega benchmaxxed, there's nothing that suggests to me that meta's culture has changed.

Re: changes, there's been enormous turnover in AI organizations, and in theory this one was developed by a "new" org. Whether that means less or more benchmaxxing is anyone's guess.
More I'd guess since the new org needs to prove itself long enough for stock to vest. Fudge the benchmarks gives them a longer horizon before they're all fired anyways.
