Very interesting, I don't know what to make of this. Is it good news for PyTorch? It was doing great under Meta anyway. Is Meta going to be less involved? Is this is a way for them to reduce their costs or do they have some other incentive?

I'm on the PyTorch core team at Meta and just wanted to say I'm so happy to be able to share this news. We are actually increasing our investment not decreasing it. AI is critical to so many parts of Meta these days and we are doubling down. However, we see a strong virtuous cycle between open source development of the framework and SOTA AI that continues to grow. Being able to bring our partners to the table in a more formal way gives us the opportunity to move forward even better.
