""We're starting to see projects that used to require big teams now be accomplished by a single, very talented person," Zuckerberg said."
"Meta CFO Susan Li said since the start of 2025, output per engineer has risen 30%, driven largely by adopting AI coding agents, and "power users" have increased output 80% year over year."
""I want to make sure that as many of these very talented people as possible choose Meta as the place that they can make the greatest impact, to deliver personalized products to billions of people around the world," Zuckerberg said. "And if we do this, then I think that we're going to get a lot more done, and I think it's going to be a lot more fun," he continued."
Meta is investing in AI-native tooling to enable employees to accomplish tasks independently and increase output. Projects that once required large teams can now be completed by single highly skilled individuals. Since early 2025, output per engineer has risen 30%, driven mainly by AI coding agents, while power users have increased output 80% year over year. Meta expects 2026 capital expenditures of $115–$135 billion to build data centers, chips, and other AI infrastructure. The company forecasts higher operating income for 2026 after reporting $83.3 billion in 2025, up 20% year over year. AI investment aims to attract and retain talent.
