Meta is reportedly reconsidering its open-source AI strategy, potentially replacing its Behemoth model with a proprietary version. Internal discussions led by new Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang suggest a strategic shift toward private AI development under Meta Superintelligence Labs, following underwhelming results from Behemoth’s evaluations.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg plans to invest hundreds of billions into AI infrastructure, including a supercluster named Prometheus set to launch in 2026.
Meta’s move reflects growing pressure to compete with OpenAI and Google, as it builds an elite team to pursue superintelligence. No final decision has been made, but change appears imminent.
