Earlier this year, Meta created a “plan” to reduce some of its teams by as much as 60 percent to make the company “AI native(原生AI;AI优先),” Reuters reported today, citing two people familiar with Meta’s internal affairs(内部事务;内情). Reuters’ report highlights the challenges organizations face when analyzing the best uses for AI and determining when the technology is a better fit(更适合;更匹配) for certain tasks than employees. Meta confirmed to Reuters that the plan, reportedly codenamed(代号为) Project OT (short for organization transformation(组织变革)), explored scenarios(场景;设想) in which Meta reduced some team headcounts(人数;编制) by 60 percent and that the plan called for(要求;预示) two rounds of layoffs(裁员). Meta wouldn’t confirm which teams Project OT affected(影响;波及).
