Zuckerberg Forms 'Super Intelligence Team', Meta Aims for AGI, Crypto Market May Face Changes
In the intense competition of artificial intelligence, Meta founder Zuckerberg, dissatisfied with Llama 4's poor performance, personally formed the 'Super Intelligence Team' to accelerate Meta's ambition for general artificial intelligence, targeting OpenAI and Google.
Recently, Zuckerberg met with top AI personnel at his residence, recruiting about 50 elites, including a new AI research director, with team members' office locations adjusted to be closer to him. He emphasized that artificial intelligence is a priority strategy for Meta, entering 'founder mode' and taking a hands-on approach over the past two months. Llama 4, released in April, faced skepticism for not meeting expectations, and Meta has also postponed the release of the next-generation model 'Behemoth'.
If Meta achieves AGI, it will apply it to its product ecosystem, including social media, communication platforms, and AI-driven tools. To achieve this goal, Meta has reserved hundreds of billions of dollars for AI projects this year, and Zuckerberg has committed to investing 'hundreds of billions of dollars' over the next few years. Additionally, the construction of the 'Super Intelligence Team' is being advanced in tandem with investments in Scale AI; if successful, Meta's competitiveness in the AI field will significantly increase.
For the crypto market, the impact has two sides.
On one hand, if Meta achieves AGI and integrates it with blockchain technology, it may elevate market expectations for the fusion of AI and cryptocurrency, attracting funds into crypto-related projects, such as decentralized AI platforms, blockchain-based AI data markets, etc., promoting their development.
On the other hand, Meta's massive AI investments may siphon funds away from the crypto market, with investors potentially shifting towards traditional tech stocks, resulting in a decrease in capital supply in the crypto market and a drop in cryptocurrency prices. Moreover, if Meta develops new features or services that compete with cryptocurrencies, it could also affect the market share and value within the crypto space.
Currently, a Meta spokesperson declined to comment on related investments, and the subsequent impact remains to be seen.
