Meta’s months-old AI unit is a soul-crushing gulag, say the engineers stuck inside it

Meta's three-month-old Applied AI unit is facing internal turmoil, with engineers describing the environment as a "soul-crushing" experience. Employees, many of whom claim they were forced into the 6,500-person unit under threat of termination, are reportedly tasked with monotonous work like generating coding problems for AI training. The frustration recently culminated in a public outburst during an internal presentation, while thousands of employees have protested a monitoring program that tracks their keystrokes. CEO Mark Zuckerberg has acknowledged the distress and pledged to address the internal issues.
