Meta reportedly closes deal to buy AI voice replicator PlayAI


The "entire PlayAI team" is joining Meta next week, Bloomberg says.

Mark Zuckerberg has been personally involved in building a team for the company's new AI Superintelligence lab over the past months with the aim of developing artificial intelligence smarter than humans. In June, Meta finalized a $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI in exchange for hiring its CEO, Alexandr Wang, who will serve as the new lab' head. Reuters listed several employees it had poached from competitors so far, including the co-creators of OpenAI's ChatGPT and GPT-4 models, as well as people who worked on Google Gemini.
