Zuckerberg highlighted that generative AI will not yield profits in the near future despite Meta's current profitability. Significant investments are being made in AI and the metaverse, anticipating a longer timeline for AI to contribute substantially to revenue.
Meta's expansion into generative AI, like the Meta AI assistant, aims to explore new revenue streams and engagement. The success of Meta AI will depend on sustained user engagement and potential monetization through ads, paid content, and premium AI models.
