Why Investors Should Be Bullish on Meta Platforms and Its AI Strategy

Key PointsMeta hired Alexandr Wang to run its Superintelligence Labs in 2025.

Meta Platforms, founded by Mark Zuckerberg, once struggled with its artificial intelligence (AI) strategy. However, the company has recently made significant strides in the AI field. In mid-2025, Meta hired Alexandr Wang, a 27-year-old whiz kid, to head Meta Superintelligence Labs. Since Wang's appointment, Meta has not only caught up with its competitors but may have even surpassed them in AI model development.

Meta's most recent AI breakthrough is the launch of Muse Spark, followed by regular updates. The company's personal agent, Muse, was officially released this month and has quickly gained popularity, topping Apple's app store charts. Muse is designed to be user-friendly, even for those without technical expertise. Its primary function is to assist with everyday tasks, including sending emails and booking travel arrangements.
