- Meta’s CTO succeeds its CISO to drive widespread adoption of AI
- Mark Zuckerberg is already working on his own agentic AI assistant
- AI-driven teams will help improve business agility
Andrew Bosworth, CTO of Meta, has been tasked with leading the deployment of AI across the company’s workforce, pushing the ‘AI For Work’ initiative to improve efficiencies.
By Wall Street Journal According to the report, Bosworth will replace Guy Rosen, the company’s CISO, to oversee the adoption of internal AI tools in an effort to make the Facebook creator more similar to startups in terms of agility.
It appears the company has already seen relatively strong initial momentum in AI pilots and employee adoption, but Meta now faces a broader rollout to its approximately 78,000 employees.

“The early pilots, the willingness to test new ideas, and the speed with which we enabled teams to adopt AI tools have created real momentum and prepare us for this next phase,” Bosworth wrote in a memo to employees.
In addition to speeding up daily work, Meta also wants to flatten its organizational structure to remove unnecessary barriers and generally transform job descriptions in light of technological changes.
Right now, AI will likely be tied to performance reviews, and Meta’s long-term goal is for every employee to have their own AI “colleague.” CEO Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly already started developing his own agentic AI assistant.
Bosworth will also lead a new AI-focused division to support LLM development teams, which he hopes will be “AI-native from day one.”
More broadly, Meta has already had its “Year of Efficiency” (2023), but recently Zuckerberg declared that “2026 will be the year that AI begins to radically change the way we work.”
Recent reports have claimed that the company may have to cut around 20% of its workforce, or around 16,000 employees, but no such action has been taken so far.
