Meta's RSC supercomputer brings revolutionary power -- and privacy and bias concerns

Last month, Meta (formerly Facebook) announced that it had developed a supercomputer known as the AI Research SuperCluster (RSC). The company claims that once completed by the end of the year, it will be one of the world's fastest AI supercomputers. The technology and social media giant says the RSC will build a strong backbone of compute capability and AI to power the metaverse. The company claims that the RSC's advanced compute capabilities will help address concerns the company has been criticized for, such as identifying harmful content and algorithmic bias. To address these concerns, Meta detailed in a blog post how it plans to safeguard the privacy of user data that this AI-powered RSC will be trained on.
