"It has one major edge over competitors -- troves of personal data about me, you and everyone we know. "We're starting to see the promise of AI that understands our personal context, including our history, our interests, our content, and our relationships," said Zuckerberg. "A lot of what makes agents valuable is the unique context that they can see, and we believe that Meta will be able to provide a uniquely personal experience.""
"Meta's long-term AI goal is personal superintelligence, a kind of holy grail: an artificial intelligence that's smarter than humans, tailored to our individual experiences in products like smart glasses. To get there, the company expects capital expenditures to increase dramatically, from last year's $72 billion to $115 to $135 billion, attributing the increase to supporting its AI labs. That money will be spent on research in a couple of different places."
Meta reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter financial results and plans major investment to develop personal superintelligence. CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the company will focus on AI that understands personal context, including history, interests, content, and relationships. Meta expects capital expenditures to rise from $72 billion to $115–$135 billion to support AI labs. Spending will target agentic AI that handles tasks autonomously and research into personalized experiences. Meta has accumulated and monetized extensive user data from Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp through targeted advertising. Personal AI products like chatbots and agents are intended to be tailored to individual lives.
