In the recent Meta Connect 2024, Mark Zuckerberg said that Meta AI has reached 500 million active monthly users in a very short time. This comes as no surprise with the company expanding its horizons by acquiring social media platforms and now delving into advanced tech to stay ahead of its competitors.
The tech giant’s CEO further said, “We’re almost at 500 million monthly activities, and we haven’t even launched in some of the bigger countries yet.” The company’s CFO, Susan Li, has also confirmed previously that India is Meta AI’s biggest market because of the widespread use of WhatsApp.
Many other exciting announcements were also made at the Meta Connect, including a new family of models called Llama 3.2 with new multimodal capabilities. Soon the company will also be launching Llama 3.2 1B and 3B, its lightweight models, in Europe.
Other reports of the live event were about Meta’s new celebrity voices, lip-synced translations, and generative AI-powered ‘imagine’ features across all social media platforms owned by the company. Moreover, users will now be able to post and edit photos, and Meta AI will give answers related to them.
The company event also revealed the improved Orion glasses, Quest 3S headset, Ray-Ban Meta video with real-time translations, and much more. All these announcements focus on a more AI-powered tech world with unlimited possibilities, leading to the exponential growth of the company.
