Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:META) is reshaping its artificial intelligence strategy with sweeping leadership changes, escalating investments and a decisive shift away from its open-source roots.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg — who only a year ago pushed Meta's Llama models as the future of open-source AI — has pivoted sharply. Llama received almost no mention during the company's October earnings call, signaling a retreat after the underperformance of Llama 4 and rising competition from Chinese labs such as DeepSeek.
