Meta's secret team to create AG

2025 June 12. 07:32   

Bloomberg reports that Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, is assembling a team of experts to create what he calls “Artificial General Intelligence” (AGI).

Bloomberg, citing a well-informed source, reports that Zuckerberg is disappointed with the results of Meta's AI developments and wants to create a new team of experts, internally called a “superintelligence team”. At the same time, he is in talks with startup Scale AI, which wants to invest billions of dollars in the project. If the investment is successful, Scale AI co-founder and CEO Alexandr Wang will join Meta's superintelligence team.

Zuckerberg plans to personally recruit around 50 people, including the team's new AI research leader. One reason is that he was disappointed with the quality of Meta's latest Llama 4 model and the response to the product, so he has taken the team into his own hands.

However, Meta and Scale AI spokespeople declined to comment on the news.

The Wall Street Journal reported last month that Meta feared the model's performance would not meet expectations, so it postponed the launch of its flagship model, code-named “Behemoth”, which was previously thought to be competitive with products from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google.

At the same time, Meta's competitors are constantly striving to improve in order to attract more investors and accelerate the development of AGI.

After a Historic Turn, SK Hynix Becomes the New Market Leader in the Memory Industry

 For three decades, the name Samsung was almost synonymous with leadership in the DRAM market. Now, however, the tables have turned: in the first half of 2025, South Korea’s SK Hynix surpassed its rival in the global memory industry for the first time, ending a streak of more than thirty years. This change signifies not just a shift in corporate rankings but also points to a deeper transformation across the entire semiconductor industry.

The Number of Organized Scientific Fraud Cases is Growing at an Alarming Rate

 The world of science is built on curiosity, collaboration, and collective progress—at least in principle. In reality, however, it has always been marked by competition, inequality, and the potential for error. The scientific community has long feared that these pressures could divert some researchers from the fundamental mission of science: creating credible knowledge. For a long time, fraud appeared to be mainly the work of lone perpetrators. In recent years, however, a troubling trend has emerged: growing evidence suggests that fraud is no longer a series of isolated missteps but an organized, industrial-scale activity, according to a recent study.

Beyond the Hype: What Does GPT-5 Really Offer?

 The development of artificial intelligence has accelerated rapidly in recent years, reaching a point where news about increasingly advanced models is emerging at an almost overwhelming pace. In this noisy environment, it’s difficult for any new development to stand out, as it must be more and more impressive to cross the threshold of user interest. OpenAI carries a double burden in this regard: not only must it continue to innovate, but it also needs to maintain its lead over fast-advancing competitors. It is into this tense landscape that OpenAI’s newly unveiled GPT-5 model family has arrived—eagerly anticipated by critics who, based on early announcements, expect nothing less than a new milestone in AI development. The big question, then, is whether it lives up to these expectations. In this article, we will examine how GPT-5 fits into the trajectory of AI model evolution, what new features it introduces, and how it impacts the current technological ecosystem.

The Most Popular Theories About the Impact of AI on the Workplace

 Since the release of ChatGPT at the end of 2022, the field of AI has seen impressive developments almost every month, sparking widespread speculation about how it will change our lives. One of the central questions concerns its impact on the workplace. As fears surrounding this issue persist, I believe it's worth revisiting the topic from time to time. Although the development of AI is dramatic, over time we may gain a clearer understanding of such questions, as empirical evidence continues to accumulate and more theories emerge attempting to answer them. In this article, I’ve tried to compile the most relevant theories—without claiming to be exhaustive—as the literature on this topic is expanding by the day. The question remains: can we already see the light at the end of the tunnel, or are we still heading into an unfamiliar world we know too little about?
