Meta undertook a significant restructuring within its artificial intelligence division to streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and accelerate its ambitious AI development goals, particularly in large language models (LLMs) and superintelligence. This strategic shift was driven by internal conflicts over limited computing resources, a perceived lack of progress following the April release of Llama 4 models, and a desire to consolidate leadership under the new Chief AI Officer, Alexandr Wang. The layoffs aimed to reduce bureaucracy, flatten the organizational structure, and ensure greater agility in a highly competitive AI landscape.

Meta is implementing performance-based job cuts, targeting approximately 5% of its workforce, or around 3,600 employees. This decision, announced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg in an internal memo, aims to 'raise the bar on performance management' and 'move out low-performers faster' as the company prepares for an 'intense year' focused on strategic areas like artificial intelligence (AI) and smart glasses. The layoffs are part of Meta's broader goal to achieve 10% 'non-regrettable' attrition by the end of the current performance cycle. Additionally, the company is undergoing a transformation that includes ending its US fact-checking program and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, with plans to replace the vacated roles with new talent later in 2025.
