This week, he sent out a bold internal memo — reported by Business Insider — that completely reorganizes Meta’s AI org into four core teams: research, product, infrastructure, and strategy.
But that’s not the big story.
The real story? Almost every senior AI leader at Meta now reports directly to him. That includes:
-
Nat Friedman, ex-GitHub CEO, now leading product
-
Aparna Ramani, a veteran engineering leader, running infrastructure
Alexandr Wang didn’t hold back. In his words:
“Superintelligence is coming.”
It’s not a pitch. It’s a warning. A push. A mission.
