Meta has reportedly invested billions of dollars into AI startup Scale AI and hired its CEO, Alexandr Wang, to lead a new AI research lab. So what does that mean for Meta and the rest of the AI ecosystem?

Scale AI, an artificial intelligence start-up, has built a business by labeling and culling data to make it easier to use to train A.I. systems.

Meta Platforms Inc. is looking to invest billions of dollars into the artificial intelligence data labeling startup Scale AI Inc. The company is holding talks over a funding deal that could see it inject more than $10 billion into the startup, though the terms have not yet been agreed and could still change, anonymous sources told Bloomberg today.
