June 8 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms ( META ) is in talks

to make an investment that could exceed $10 billion in

artificial intelligence startup Scale AI, Bloomberg News

reported on Sunday.

The terms of the deal were not yet finalized and could still

change, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter.

Scale AI declined to comment and Meta did not immediately

respond to Reuters request for comment outside regular business

hours.

Founded in 2016, Scale AI is a data labeling startup backed

by tech giants Nvidia ( NVDA ), Amazon ( AMZN ) and Meta.

Last valued at nearly $14 billion, Scale AI also provides a

platform for researchers to exchange AI-related information,

with contributors in more than 9,000 cities and towns.
