Mark Zuckerberg predicts that billions of people will have personal AI agents in five years

Mark Zuckerberg predicts that personal AI agents will become mainstream within five years, potentially reaching billions of users. The comment comes as Meta spends heavily on AI infrastructure and agent development while trying to reassure investors about long-term returns.

Meta is positioning AI agents as the next major consumer computing layer, not just a feature inside existing apps. The scale of its spending highlights a broader industry bet that AI infrastructure will be justified by new engagement, productivity, and monetization models.
