Joelle Pineau, head of Meta’s AI research, is leaving the company just as Meta intensifies its focus and investment in AI technology. Her exit may hinder Meta's efforts to compete against top players like OpenAI and Anthropic. Pineau announced her departure on LinkedIn, stating that it's time for new leadership amid significant changes in the AI landscape. Meta has committed up to $65 billion this year to bolster its AI projects, particularly Llama, its open-source large language model, aiming for widespread adoption among users.
"Today, as the world undergoes significant change, as the race for AI accelerates, and as Meta prepares for its next chapter, it is time to create space for others to pursue the work..."
"We thank Joelle for her leadership of FAIR. She's been an important voice for Open Source and helped push breakthroughs to advance our products and the science behind them."
