Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg predicts that billions of people will have personal AI agents within five years, integrated into messaging platforms like WhatsApp. The company is making substantial infrastructure investments to support this vision, including a new $14bn data centre, despite significant quarterly losses in Reality Labs and a 91% drop in free cash flow year-over-year.
