    Interesting choice, his prior experience doesn't seem AI related yet he's going to lead an AI strategy at Meta?

      Meta’s chief AI officer is a 29-30 year old who was acquihired as part of his data labelling company. He’s not a model developer.

      Meta hires in strange ways. I’m convinced it’s more about your sales pitch going in.

        Given this guy's job will be selling Muse to corporations, sounds like the best way to hire for that position.
