Meta Shifts AI Focus, Invests Nearly $70 Billion

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has unveiled a plan to develop 'personal superintelligence,' focusing on empowering individuals through AI rather than automating jobs. The company's strategy aims to enable users to achieve personal goals and foster creativity, but experts caution that superintelligent AI could still drive automation if adopted by businesses for efficiency. Meta is investing nearly $70 billion in AI infrastructure in 2025, including building superclusters and introducing new AI-powered smart glasses with Ray-Ban. Zuckerberg has indicated a move away from Meta’s previous commitment to fully open-source AI, stressing the need for caution and risk management as models advance. Despite some criticism regarding the vagueness of product details and open-source policies, Meta’s AI initiatives have driven strong financial results. The company is positioning itself as a leader in the evolving AI landscape.
