Meta Doubles Down On AI, Fuses Efforts
Jan. 19, 2024 | By Colin Kirkland - MediaPost
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced the company's next steps toward investing in artificial intelligence -- highlighting plans to open-source the emerging technology, build an infrastructure, fuse the company's two leading AI research groups, and connect Meta's efforts to its ongoing metaverse development vision.
“We’ve come to this view that, in order to build the products that we want to build, we need to build for general intelligence,” Zuckerberg told The Verge. “I think that's important to convey because a lot of the best researchers want to work on the more ambitious problems.”
