Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg is bringing in Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang to help the social media company better execute on its AI ambitions.

Alexandr Wang, once the youngest self-made billionaire in the world, has agreed to join Meta to work on AI “superintelligence,” leaving the startup that made him rich after dropping out of MIT. Alexandr Wang’s Scale AI just inked a $14.

Meta is betting big on a new superintelligence lab, luring talent with massive paychecks and bringing in Scale AI’s Alexandr Wang—but insiders warn that deep internal dysfunction could sabotage the effort.

Google is reportedly cutting ties with Scale AI after Meta acquired a 49% stake in the data-labeling startup, according to Benzinga. Google was previously Scale AI’s largest customer, and it is reportedly planning to end its relationship with the company.

In a strategic move, Meta invests $14.3 billion in Scale AI, taking a 49 per cent stake in the data-labelling startup. Scale's CEO Alexandr Wang will play a key role in shaping Meta's AI future, particularly in superintelligence.

Alexandr Wang, son of nuclear physicists, dropped out of MIT to co-found Scale AI, a company providing crucial data for AI development. Scale AI's rapid growth led to a $7 billion valuation, making Wang the world's youngest self-made billionaire.
