According to PANews, Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been reorganizing the company's artificial intelligence (AI) operations over the past few months. Now, he plans to take further steps that could intensify internal disruptions within the tech division. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that on Tuesday, Meta is expected to announce the division of its AI department, the Meta Superintelligence Lab, into four distinct groups. One group will focus on AI research, another on a potentially powerful AI known as 'superintelligence,' a third on product development, and the last on infrastructure, including data centers and other AI hardware.
These changes aim to better organize Meta for faster AI product development to compete with other companies. The sources also indicated that some AI executives are anticipated to leave the company. Additionally, Meta is considering an overall reduction in the size of its AI department, which could involve layoffs or transferring employees to other parts of the company, as the department has grown to thousands in recent years. However, discussions are ongoing, and no final decisions have been made.
