Meta's investment makes Google leave Scale AI
Google is ending its partnership with Scale AI after Meta's substantial investment, raising data security concerns and potentially impacting Scale's operations. Meta's investment, including a 49% stake and the transition of Scale's CEO to Meta, has prompted Google, Microsoft, and xAI to reconsider their relationships with Scale due to fears of data exposure. Google, Scale's largest customer, is shifting its workload to competitors. This shift highlights growing concerns about data security within the AI industry, as major tech companies like Meta increase their influence. Scale AI, which serves various sectors, relies heavily on a few key clients.
