Meta splits Responsible AI team between generative AI and AI infrastructure

Meta Platforms has split its Responsible AI (RAI) team, with most employees moving to the generative AI team and others joining the AI infrastructure unit, according to an internal post reviewed by The Information. The reorganization follows a series of shakeups within the team, and comes as Meta invests heavily in open-source AI models to compete with OpenAI and Google. While the majority of the RAI team will sit in its generative AI unit, it will continue to support relevant cross-Meta efforts on responsible AI development and use, Meta spokesman Jon Carvill said, noting that "these changes will allow us to better scale to meet our future needs."
