BlockBeats News, December 10th - After investing billions of dollars to build the most expensive team in tech history over the past few months, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is now deeply involved in day-to-day development and is driving the company's strategic shift towards AI models that can be directly monetized. According to insiders, a new model codenamed "Avocado" is expected to be released in the spring of 2026 and may be launched in a closed-source form (meaning Meta will tightly control and sell access rights to the outside).

This move marks a significant departure for Meta from its long-standing emphasis on the open-source path. Zuckerberg is dedicating a significant amount of time to a core team called TBD Lab, which, in training Avocado, has even integrated third-party models including Google's Gemma, OpenAI's GPT-oss, and Alibaba's Qwen.

At the same time, Meta is significantly realigning its resource allocation, reducing investment in the metaverse and virtual reality, shifting funds to hardware like AI glasses, and planning to invest $600 billion in AI infrastructure in the United States over the next three years. (Jinshi)
