This marks the first time a major tech company has explicitly reversed course on open-source AI development specifically for superintelligence pursuit. Meta's unprecedented combination of a dedicated 'Superintelligence Lab' with nine-figure researcher salaries represents a new phase in corporate AI development that prioritizes controlled, proprietary advancement over collaborative innovation.
Meta's AI Lab Shifts from Open Source to Secret Superintelligence
📰 What Happened
Meta's Superintelligence Lab is considering abandoning its open-source AI model Behemoth in favor of closed-source development. While Meta's spokesperson claims their open-source position remains unchanged, internal discussions reveal a potential strategic pivot. The company continues investing heavily in AI development, offering massive signing bonuses and nine-figure salaries to researchers while building new data centers. This shift comes as Meta faces pressure to monetize beyond advertising while pursuing artificial general intelligence development.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The formation of Meta's Superintelligence Lab with extreme secrecy and unprecedented researcher compensation aligns with Daniel 12:4's prediction of knowledge increasing in the end times. The shift from open to closed development mirrors Revelation 13:17's centralized control system, as Meta positions itself to potentially control advanced AI capabilities. The company's explicit focus on 'superintelligence' development connects to 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10, suggesting how miraculous deceptions could manifest through advanced AI systems that surpass human understanding.
