Meta has completed a $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI, valuing the data labeling and AI model evaluation company at $29 billion. As part of this agreement, Scale AI's founder and CEO, Alexandr Wang, will join Meta to lead its "Superintelligence Lab."

With this investment, Meta will hold a 49 percent stake in Scale AI but will have limited operational control. The investment structure was designed to avoid regulatory scrutiny. Alexandr Wang will transition from his role as CEO but will remain on Scale's Board of Directors. Jason Droege, the current Chief Strategy Officer, will assume the CEO position.
