After spending billions of dollars to recruit top AI talent from rival AI companies, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has shared his vision to "bring personal superintelligence to everyone."

Zuckerberg published the manifesto on Wednesday morning, after weeks of a poaching frenzy that convinced AI researchers from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google to join Meta's new superintelligence group, dubbed Meta Superintelligence Labs. Meta also gained Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang as part of a $14.3 billion investment in the data annotation company. The goal is to develop better AI models to compete against Meta's rivals, which have consistently bested the tech giant on key benchmarks. To accomplish this, Zuckerberg reportedly wants the new AI supergroup to operate more like a startup within Meta, keeping it compartmentalized from the larger Meta "bureaucracy," according to a recent report in The Financial Times.

The Meta CEO didn't get into specifics of his superintelligence vision, but emphasized an advanced form of AI that's highly personalized and empowering. "As profound as the abundance produced by AI may one day be, an even more meaningful impact on our lives will likely come from everyone having a personal superintelligence that helps you achieve your goals, create what you want to see in the world, experience any adventure, be a better friend to those you care about, and grow to become the person you aspire to be," Zuckerberg wrote.

He also threw light shade on Meta's competitors by saying "others in the industry... believe superintelligence should be directed centrally towards automating all valuable work, and then humanity will live on a dole of its output." This may be alluding to Meta's open-source approach to developing AI, compared to rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic which closely guard the secrets of their models. "At Meta, we believe that people pursuing their individual aspirations is how we have always made progress expanding prosperity, science, health, and culture."

The timing of Zuckerberg's post coincides with Meta's Q2 earnings call later today. We'll find out soon whether Wall Street likes this better than his vision for the Metaverse. You can read the full post at the Meta website.
