Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg says Muse and Reality Labs are highly unprofitable — for now
Zuckerberg calling Muse’s compute costs and Reality Labs’ hardware losses ‘highly unprofitable’ is a clear signal that Meta is willing to subsidize AI assistants and devices at scale. If you’re building consumer AI or XR, assume years of price and performance pressure from a player treating these as strategic, not near-term P&L businesses.
Walmart rolls out AI agent shopping features while Amazon tries to curb the tech
Commerce rails are quietly being redesigned for machine customers — Walmart opening APIs to third-party agents while Amazon resists creates a real A/B test of agent-native retail. If you run a marketplace or brand, you now have to decide whether to optimize for human UX, agent UX, or both.
Applied AIMeta says Muse has over 10M users, with shopping a top activity

Treat these assistants less like chatbots and more like new performance channels — with their own SEO, merchandising, and funnel analytics.
Applied AIMeta expects its 2026 capex to be $135B-$145B, vs. $130B-$145B previously, and forecasts Q4 revenue of $73B-$76B, vs. $73.6B est.; META jumps 3%+ after hours
Meta nudging 2026 capex up to $135B–$145B while the stock trades up tells you public markets are now underwriting hyperscale AI and infra spend as core, not speculative. For smaller players, this raises the bar on owning foundational compute — partnership and specialization become the default strategy, not a compromise.
