Meta has laid off hundreds of employees across several divisions after CEO Mark Zuckerberg signaled a major shift toward artificial intelligence. He recently said that projects which once required large teams can now be completed by a single highly skilled person using AI tools. As Meta restructures its workforce, the company is pouring billions into AI infrastructure while scaling back some of its metaverse ambitions. Reality Labs has lost tens of billions since 2021, while Meta’s core apps like Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp continue to generate massive revenue. This move reflects a larger shift happening across the tech industry as AI begins to reshape how companies build products, hire teams, and operate at scale.
