Meta’s AI Future Hinges on One Thing β€” And It’s Killing the Company From Within

Meta’s AI pivot is being sabotaged by its own ad-driven culture. While competitors like OpenAI and Google start fresh, Zuckerberg’s company is stuck reconciling a $130 billion surveillance business with a future that demands trust and data ownership. The real threat isn’t external β€” it’s the internal resistance to change.

Stop Building AI Agents Until You’ve Done These 6 Things

Before you buy an AI agent, you need to find your knowledge. An FDE (Field Data Engineer) reveals the six-step knowledge audit that separates agent success from expensive failure.
