Jiahui Yu, Lead Multimodal at Meta’s Superintelligence Lab, announced Friday that he is leaving the company to start a new venture.
In a post on X, Yu wrote:
“I’m leaving Meta to start a new company.
Building the TBD Lab alongside Mark @finkd and Alex @alexandr_wang has been deeply inspiring and fulfilling. I’m proud of what our multimodal team accomplished across Muse Spark, Voice Mode, Muse Image, and Muse Video, and even prouder of the team that made it possible.
Over time, I’ve felt increasingly drawn to a problem that will matter deeply to humanity’s future, yet remains largely underexplored. It now has my full attention.
More to share as the work takes shape.”
Yu previously led Perception at OpenAI and co-led Gemini Multimodal at Google DeepMind before joining Meta.
