The company declined to comment on the job cuts, but confirmed an earlier report by Axios, which cited a Wednesday memo that Meta Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang sent to employees.
"By reducing the size of our team, fewer conversations will be required to make a decision, and each person will be more load-bearing and have more scope and impact," the memo said.
The job cuts hit workers in Meta’s superintelligence lab, a division that has several thousand employees. The company is working to bring “superintelligence” — AI that surpasses human intelligence — to everyone, Meta Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg said in a July memo.
