Meta's newly formed Applied AI team is experiencing significant employee dissatisfaction due to menial, repetitive tasks and low morale following a major layoff of 8,000 workers. Employees describe their work as unfulfilling and mechanical, contrasting with their previous roles in software development. The frustration culminated in a disruptive live meeting and a petition against monitoring employee activity for AI data. Meta leadership, including Mark Zuckerberg, acknowledges the challenges and promises stability, fewer layoffs, and better support for employees moving forward.
