Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees at an internal town hall that the company’s AI agents haven’t advanced as quickly as leadership projected, according to Reuters. The comments come after Meta cut roughly 8,000 jobs—about 10% of its corporate staff—and reassigned about 7,000 workers to AI efforts, including a unit called Agent Transformation. Zuckerberg said the restructuring wasn’t as “clean” as planned, and the benefits of the new structure haven’t materialized yet, but he expects progress in three to six months. Meta is pressing ahead with heavy AI spending, with Reuters reporting the company could invest up to $145 billion in AI infrastructure this year, underscoring the challenge of turning large AI bets into near‑term performance gains.
