Asia tech stocks slide tracking Wall St losses amid AI doubts, govt. uncertainty
Investing.com -- Meta (NASDAQ:META) is expected to announce a restructuring of its artificial intelligence division on Tuesday, dividing Meta Superintelligence Labs into four separate groups, according to the New York Times (NYSE:NYT).
The reorganization will create dedicated teams focusing on AI research, superintelligence development, products, and infrastructure including data centers and hardware. Sources familiar with the plans indicate the changes aim to accelerate AI product development to better compete in the market.
The restructuring comes after months of changes to Meta’s AI strategy led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Some AI executives are expected to depart as part of the reorganization, and the company is considering downsizing the division, which has grown to thousands of employees in recent years. This could involve eliminating positions or transferring staff to other departments, though final decisions have not been made.
In a potential strategic shift, Meta is also exploring the use of third-party AI models to power its products, rather than relying exclusively on its own technology. This could include utilizing open-source models or licensing closed-source models from other companies.
