Meta plans fourth restructuring of AI efforts in six months, The Information reports
Aug 15, 2025 3:56 PM

(Reuters) -Meta is planning its fourth overhaul of artificial intelligence efforts in six months, The Information reported on Friday, citing three people familiar with the matter.

The company is expected to divide its new AI unit, Superintelligence Labs, into four groups: a new "TBD Lab," short for to be determined; a products team including the Meta AI assistant; an infrastructure team; and the Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) lab focused on long-term research, the report said, citing two people.

Meta did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Reuters could not independently verify the report.

As Silicon Valley's AI contest intensifies, CEO Mark Zuckerberg is going all-in to fast-track work on artificial general intelligence - machines that can outthink humans - and help create new cash flows.

Meta recently reorganized the company's AI efforts under Superintelligence Labs, a high-stakes push that followed senior staff departures and a poor reception for Meta's latest open-source Llama 4 model.

The social media giant has tapped U.S. bond giant PIMCO and alternative asset manager Blue Owl Capital to spearhead a $29 billion financing for its data center expansion in rural Louisiana, Reuters reported earlier this month.

In July, Zuckerberg said Meta would spend hundreds of billions of dollars to build several massive AI data centers.

The company raised the bottom end of its annual capital expenditures forecast by $2 billion, to a range of $66 billion to $72 billion last month.

Rising costs to build out data center infrastructure and employee compensation costs - as Meta has been poaching researchers with mega salaries - would push the 2026 expense growth rate above the pace in 2025, the company has said.
