Zuckerberg is pumping hundreds of billions of dollars into AI as he seeks to reshape his company’s inner workings around the technology, reflecting a broader pattern among major US companies this year, particularly in the tech sector. In the memo, Zuckerberg describes the rapid advances in AI and the challenges brought on by the boom in the technology.

“Given the complexity of these changes, we’ve made mistakes and will almost certainly make more,” Zuckerberg said, adding that he is also “focused on providing as much stability as possible” in terms of organization changes going forward.

“I don’t want to overpromise because the world is changing in ways that are out of our control,” he said, reiterating that Meta does not expect more company-wide layoffs this year. He said Meta will try to find new roles for employees reassigned to train AI models, after the Facebook owner carried out a massive restructuring in May, laying off 10 per cent of its workforce globally.
