Meta officially announced an investment of nearly $15 billion to acquire a 49% stake in Scale AI and simultaneously hired its founder, Alexander Wang, to lead a new "Super Intelligence" laboratory. At 25 years old, Alexander Wang is a talented Chinese-American entrepreneur. He dropped out of MIT at 19 to found Scale AI, which focuses on providing high-quality data annotation services for AI models. In eight years, he has developed the company into an AI unicorn valued at $13.8 billion, known as the "data factory for AI models," providing data services to major AI companies such as OpenAI, Meta, and Google. In a recent interview, Alexander Wang shared his entrepreneurial methodology: emphasizing that cognitive arbitrage ability is more important than technology, focus is the core advantage of startups against tech giants, and perception is more important than reality in corporate sales. He pointed out that the current development of AI faces the data wall dilemma, and synthetic data cannot completely solve the problem. In the future, there is a need for the exponential growth of human-generated data and computing resources to be synchronized, which brings huge opportunities for data infrastructure companies like Scale AI.
