According to ChainCatcher, industry insiders report that Meta is splitting its AI superintelligence lab into four departments, each focusing on research, infrastructure, and product development, as part of a broader effort to accelerate the so-called superintelligence process. Meta's Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang stated in a memo that the superintelligence lab will be divided into smaller departments focusing on AI research, infrastructure, hardware, product integration, and the company's long-term superintelligence goals.
According to informed sources, it is expected that some executives will leave after the reorganization. Meta is also considering integrating third-party AI models into its products, which will change its past reliance on internal AI development.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg has made artificial intelligence and recent developments in superintelligence the core of Meta's long-term vision. In the company's second-quarter earnings call, CFO Susan Li stated that by the end of the year, capital expenditures could reach $72 billion, primarily driven by AI-related infrastructure.
