Meta has announced plans to reduce its workforce by about 8,000 employees. This decision comes as the company intensifies its focus on artificial intelligence.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg is prioritizing the development of what he describes as 'superintelligence,' a goal that requires significant financial investment.
The layoffs occur within a broader context of competition in the AI sector, where companies such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI are also heavily investing.
