Not much to see here, just Mark Zuckerberg making sure that Stephen Miller, of all people, greenlights Facebook's new hiring policies.

A little pushback on the "AI researchers are like NBA stars" stuff: Meta, which is driving this narrative, is uniquely toxic. In an industry that contains Elon Musk! nymag.com/intelligence...
It also hasn't helped that Zuckerberg's recent, Altman-esque attempts at Al prophesying are even less convincing from within the industry than from outside it, and to the extent he has tried to articulate a vision - replacing friends with Al, a vaguely defined "superintelligence" that will somehow mainly benefit individuals - it comes across as borrowed and incoherent even by the low standards of CEO AI prognostication. And whatever motives you might ascribe to the leaders of Al firms, the talent they're pursuing tends to be — by a few definitions of the word - somewhat idealistic. If they're worried about Al risk, they're probably more inclined to work for someone like Anthropic's Dario Amodei than Mark Zuckerberg circa 2025. If they're interested in pure research, they're probably going to want to work for people they see as fellow pure researchers - people like Google's Demis Hassabis or a founder like Ilya Sutskever. If they're a bit more accelerationist and spend a lot of time absorbing the sort of Al discourse that's popular on X - or if they're just looking at where concentrations of like-minded talent already exist - they might be more inclined to work at OpenAI. Gruesome as parts of it may be, even XAI has a coherent pitch to a certain sort of "cracked" Al engineer: lots of resources, few guardrails, proximity to Elon Musk, and a corresponding ideological mission. Perhaps most importantly, setting aside various specific motivations and theories of what the Al arms race really is, you won't find a lot of people in the industry who would bet on Meta winning it, at least right now. (Though one could argue that the company's entertainment-centric, slop-and-advertising-adjacent approach to actually monetizing Al so far represents a realistic if disheartening path toward extracting value from LLMs.) That Mark Zuckerberg has a weaker future-of-Al pitch than the MechaHitler guy goes a long way toward explaining his company's outlier offers (recent stories about internal materials allowing "sensual" chats with kids certainly can't help). But elements of Meta's reputation that are less visible outside of the tech industry are playing a major role as well. At Forbes, Rashi Shrivastava and Richard Nieva describe deeper problems, reporting on constant internal restructurings (the fourth in six months is underway, according to the Information), unclear priorities, and bruising demands to work on products that, so far, have been poorly received. While punishing "9-9-6"-style work schedules are becoming more common at AI firms, employees are often motivated by genuine enthusiasm, fear of their companies losing a high-stakes race, and, of course, lots of equity tied to their work's success. Since 2023, Meta's general orientation toward its employees has become much harsher, with layoffs and public warnings from leadership sharply diverging from the company's financial performance. A widely circulated internal memo from a (now former) Al researcher at Meta warned that a "metastatic cancer" was threatening the company's work culture. Last week, in a post meant to push back against "sensationalist" reporting on the memo, he described his intention to draw attention to the "unhealthy" traits of the Al organization and wasn't actually much gentler: • The fear that people feel on a daily basis of reviews and getting fired, commenting on a lack of safeness people felt, which is crucial for morale. • The necessity of a culture and processes that enable 'big projects' to come to fruition. • The management culture not promoting a sense of camaraderie among employees, leading to a lack of sense of belonging. • Instability in team assignments, leading to experience not building up and crystallizing over time.

Jeff Bezos and Facebook's Eduardo Saverin are planning to buy a large stake in Liverpool FC.

This is terrible and should be blocked.

Football clubs should be owned by the countries they are in so the money from their supporters goes back to THEIR communities.
