Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth calls rollout of new AI division 'atrocious'

Meta Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth said the company did an “atrocious” job rolling out its newly formed AI division, a reorganization that badly hit morale among roughly 6,500 engineers and product managers, with some employees likening the group to a “gulag.” Meta is seeking to rebuild trust by reshaping management, improving communication, offering career development support, and upgrading office perks. The episode underscores a major setback in executing the company’s AI strategy that could slow model iteration and commercialization.
