- Andrew Bosworth acknowledged Meta did an 'atrocious' job rolling out its new Applied AI division, causing widespread dissatisfaction.
- Bosworth said Meta would address trust issues by improving communication, career growth, and managerial support, including capping managers at about 20 direct reports.
- Meta will allow employees drafted into the AI team to seek other internal roles if they secure them, restoring more agency.
- Bosworth emphasized AI won't replace workers but noted performance will be based on impact with AI, not just usage.
- Meta plans to boost morale through better office snacks, increased travel budgets, and more social events to rebuild a cheerful culture.
