Documents significant talent exodus (50%+ of LLaMA authors departed), weak safety culture, and aggressive open-source strategy amid racing dynamics toward 2027 AGI timeline.",
  "description": "Meta's AI research division founded in 2013, pioneering open-source AI with PyTorch (63% of training models) and LLaMA (1B+ downloads). Parent company invested \\$66-72B in AI infrastructure (2025) with AGI timeline of 2027. Chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun departed November 2025 to found AMI. Frontier AI Framework addresses CBRN risks but critics note lack of robust safety culture amid product prioritization.",
