OpenAI has begun scaling back its contracts with Scale AI following Meta's $14.8 billion acquisition of a 49% stake in the data labeling firm. The MOVE signals a strategic pivot in how the ChatGPT-maker sources training data for its models.

Meta's June 12 deal represents its second-largest acquisition to date, bringing Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang into Meta's experimental AI initiative. While Scale AI maintains its independence, OpenAI has been gradually reducing reliance on its services over the past year.

The AI giant now turns to specialized data providers like Mercor as it refines its model training pipeline. Scale AI represented only a minor portion of OpenAI's data operations prior to the Meta deal.
