 Meta to lay off several hundred employees amid AI refocus, company offers some new roles

Meta is laying off several hundred employees across multiple divisions, including Facebook, global operations, recruiting, sales, and its virtual reality branch, Reality Labs, as the company shifts focus toward artificial intelligence.
