Meta invested $14.3 billion in Wang's former company, Scale AI, before bringing him aboard to lead the charge against OpenAI and Google. The 41-year-old Zuckerberg has backed his new hires with nine-figure compensation packages to lure top researchers from rivals, igniting a Silicon Valley poaching war. Last month, he pitched investors on "a new era of individual empowerment" while projecting capital expenditures up to $72 billion this year. Meta's AI division faces a dramatic four-way split as Meta reorganizes into groups focused on research, superintelligence development, products, and infrastructure, according to the report. Meta is also considering downsizing the AI division, which has grown to thousands of employees, through potential role eliminations and transfers to other departments, sources said. Several high-profile departures have followed the leadership changes.
