Mark Zuckerberg said Monday that Meta would spend hundreds of billions of dollars to build several massive AI data centers for superintelligence, intensifying his pursuit of a technology that he has chased with a talent war for top AI engineers.
The social media giant is among the large technology companies that have chased high-profile deals and doled out multi-million-dollar pay packages in recent months to fast-track work on machines that can outthink humans on most tasks.
Meta reorganized its AI efforts under a new division called Superintelligence Labs last month following setbacks with its Llama 4 model amid key staff departures. It expects the new division to generate new cash flow streams from the Meta AI app, image-to-video ad tools and smart glasses.
