Hey there, my lovely followers! It’s your favorite tech-loving funny guy, Nuked, here to bring you some exciting news from the world of Meta. So, let’s dive right in!
Inside Meta’s big AI reorg, there’s a lot happening that’s worth talking about. First off, CEO Mark Zuckerberg has made a bold move by deciding to move its AI research team, FAIR, to sit in its product organization. This means that Joelle Pineau, the VP who leads FAIR, and Yann LeCun, chief AI scientist, will now report to Meta’s chief product officer, Chris Cox. Previously, they reported to CTO Andrew’Boz’ Bosworth.
In an internal note to employees that I managed to get my hands on, Cox mentioned that this change is all about elevating the importance of AI research within Meta. He believes that AI research is an essential ingredient for the long-term success of the company and its products. By bringing FAIR and GenAI closer together, they aim to create a more coherent AI research portfolio and roadmap. Oh, and let’s not forget about Llama – it’s going to be the primary launch vehicle for progress towards AGI (Artificial General Intelligence).
But that’s not all! This reorg also promises a streamlined development process for new technologies and novel AI research. They want to navigate the legal, policy, and brand landscape consistently in an increasingly scrutinized space. It’s all about staying ahead of the game while keeping things in check.
