Zuckerberg’s $15B talent war explained

Mark Zuckerberg has a history of making bold bets that reshape the entire industries – and amazingly lost when they do not go out. After combustion through $ 46 billion on Metavers with little to show it, Meta CEO is now multiplied with a more ambitious bet: Superrentelligence AI.

This time, however, the risks are higher, the competition is more fierce, and the potential transformational rewards are more than anything you have tried dead before.

With compensation packages nine numbers and investments in the infrastructure that dwarfs it to the superficial spending, the Gamble of SuperINGEGE AI in Zuckerberg is the most expensive talent war in Silicon Valley-one can enhance the technological Meta giant or become another cautious tale of the reality.

The birth of Superintligence laboratories

The formation of the Meta Superinteigence Labs is a transformation of the social media giant. In an exclusive interview with InformationZuckerberg told Jessica Lesen’s founder that “Titv Live-Treaming Programting” is “the most exciting thing this year is that we are beginning to see early glimpses of self-improvement with models, which means that the development of super intelligence is now on the horizon.”

The company’s vision prompted the entire artificial intelligence department, with an ambitious purpose of presenting what Zuckerberg calls “the super -intelligent intelligence for all in the world.” The establishment of the laboratory follows a period of internal conflicts in the META Department of Amnesty International, including administration conflicts, employee employees, and products that have fallen.

Instead of increasing the current systems, Zuckerberg chose a comprehensive reform, which led to external leadership and re -imagining the company’s approach to developing artificial intelligence.

Are we witnessing the most expensive talent war in the history of technology?

The Meta SuperINGE AI AI’s aspirations are the strategy to acquire talent that has been shocked through this industry. Zuckerberg has begun in a splash to create the new laboratory, as it has provided up to nine numbers to employ senior researchers from companies such as Openai, Google, Apple and Noteropic.

when Information Zuckerberg, who questioned reports of compensation packages ranging from 100 and 200 million dollars, acknowledged the competitive nature of the market, saying that “many of the reported details are not accurate on its own. But it is a very hot market … There are a small number of researchers, who are the best, who require all different laboratories.”

The strategy of obtaining Meta AI talents extends beyond financial incentives. Zuckerberg said that “the most accountable for every researcher in the first place is a strategic feature, not only to do work, but to attract the best of people.” The approach reflects the understanding that it is in the SuperIntelligence AI race, the density of talent concern more than the size of the team.

Alexander Wang gain: 14.3 billion US dollars gambling

The Meta talent strategy focus was the acquisition of the AI leadership. In June, the company invested 14.3 billion US dollars in the start of intelligence, its establishment and the leadership of Wang. Under the deal, Meta acquired 49 % in the company, and Wang and a team of high employees joined Meta in leadership roles.

At only 28 years old, Alexandr Wang is now a chief officer of Amnesty International in Meta, as he led the company named “Meta Super Waselligence Labs”. In the greater artificial intelligence department, Wang led a team of about ten newly appointed researchers, and a handful of his deputies from Scale Ai, and Nat Friedman, former CEO of GitHub.

The integration of the Wang team as a re -imagination of how Meta is dealing with the development of artificial intelligence. The group operates in a office space from the rest of the company and next to Zuckerberg, highlighting the importance that has been put in the initiative.

Philosophical transformation: From the open source to closed development

Perhaps the most important development of the Meta Superinte Britance Labs is the potential abandonment of the company’s open source philosophy for a long time. Last week, a small group of major members of the laboratory, including Wang, discussed the most powerful AI Open Source model for the company, called Behemoth, in favor of developing a closed model.

This is a departure from the historical approach of Meta. For years, Meta chose to open the source of artificial intelligence models for her, making public instructions for other developers to build on. Meta executives have argued that it is better to build technology in public places so that the development of artificial intelligence moves faster and will be within the reach of more developers.

The shift reflects concerns about competitiveness in the artificial intelligence race. Meta has finished feeding data in the giant (training) model, but it has delayed its release due to poor internal performance. The relapse prompted a reconsideration of the company’s approach.

Infrastructure as a competitive advantage

Beyond Talent Acquisition, Meta makes investments in infrastructure to support its ambitions in the field of private. Zuckerberg revealed that the company “builds multiple multi -databases” and pioneering new construction methods, including “leakage tents” to accelerate the publication.

The size of these investments is amazing. Hyperion, one of the new data centers in Meta, “will exceed five GB over the coming years” and “The size of the site covers a large part of the Manhattan imprint in terms of space.”

The infrastructure spending is enabled through the strong financial situation of Meta, where Zuckerberg indicated that “we can do this mainly from the company’s cash flow.”

Personal SuperTelligence vision

What distinguishes Meta’s approach to competitors is its focus on “personal superteigence” instead of central artificial intelligence systems. During his interview with Information Zuckerberg explained that although other laboratories focus on “the desire to automate all economic productive actions in society”, Meta’s vision focuses on “what things people care about in their own lives … relations, culture, creativity and enjoyment of life.”

The vision extends to the aspirations of Meta devices, especially the AR glasses initiative. In the TITV interview, Zuckerberg expects that “if you do not have Amnesty International glasses, you will be in a cognitive defect” and described future scenarios where “artificial intelligence comrades” can “take into account what is going on in your life and be able to follow up on things for you.”

The effects of industry and competitive dynamics

The effects of the META SuperINGENIGE batch extend beyond the company. The talent acquisition strategy from AI Meta created salary inflation in this industry, forcing competitors to match or overcome the levels of Meta compensation to keep their researchers.

When asked about his interactions with the competitors in Sun Valley, Zuckerberg admitted the competitive scene, saying, “We are not trying to target anyone separately. I want to make sure that I know all researchers in this industry.”

The diplomatic approach hides what is essentially a zero competition for a limited group of artificial intelligence talent. A possible transformation from the development of the open source also indicates the direction of a wider industry towards more than the methods of developing artificial intelligence.

Conclusion: a decisive moment for the dead

The Meta Superinteigence initiative is to re -imagine the company’s future. After the failed experience in charge of achieving the results, Zuckerberg is betting on more artificial intelligence, with investments that may exceed $ 100 billion over the coming years.

The success or failure of the Meta SuperINGELGENCE laboratories is likely to be determined for the company’s future, but also on the path of the broader artificial intelligence industry. With some employees “immigration from the talents of artificial intelligence who have not been chosen to join the Wang’s SuperIntelligence team, the risks are high.

Whether the talent acquisition campaign from AI Meta will lead to the piercing techniques that Zuckerberg is still seen. What is certain is that the most expensive talent war in the Silicon Valley started.
