Meta to Pour Hundreds of Billions into Building Superintelligent AI

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced plans to invest hundreds of billions of dollars into developing superintelligent AI—technology that could surpass human intelligence. This includes building massive data centers, like the upcoming Prometheus supercluster set to launch in 2026. Meta’s 2025 capital spending is expected to soar to as much as $72 billion, more than double last year’s. The company is also hiring top AI talent, including acquiring a major stake in Scale AI and appointing its CEO as Meta’s new Chief AI Officer. The move signals Meta’s bold push to lead the next frontier of artificial intelligence.
