Meta Firings: The Great FAIR Purge and Rise of the AI Death Star

Meta Firings: The Great FAIR Purge and Rise of the AI Death Star

Meta just threw its AI playbook in the shredder, lit the ashes on fire, and built a secret lab on top. In this episode, Emily Laird breaks down the end of FAIR, the open-source darling of Meta AI, and the rise of a new AGI-obsessed regime led by Alexandr Wang. We’re talking layoffs, lab coats, and the TBD Lab (a.k.a. Meta’s AI Navy SEALs). Forget transparency, Meta’s going dark, chasing superintelligence like it’s the Holy Grail and they’re Indiana Jones with a GPU cluster. If you liked open research and shared models, pour one out. The age of AI moonshots and megabucks is here. Join the AI Weekly Meetups Connect with Us: If you enjoyed this episode or have questions, reach out to Emily Laird on LinkedIn.
