Meta says AIRA₃ won Kaggle gold, placing eighth out of roughly 4,000 teams

Meta says it entered AIRA₃ in NVIDIA’s live Kaggle competition in June 2026, where the system placed eighth out of roughly 4,000 teams and earned gold. According to Meta, all competitors had access to the same information and were graded externally on a private test set. The company views the result as a signal that AIRA₃ can improve a targeted AI model capability at a level similar to human experts.
