WASHINGTON - Meta Platforms plans to debut a standalone Meta AI app to join Facebook and Instagram during the second quarter, CNBC reported on Feb 27, citing people familiar with the matter.

The move marks a major step in Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s plans to make Meta the leader in AI by the end of 2025, ahead of competitors like OpenAI and Alphabet, CNBC reported.

Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

In January, Mr Zuckerberg said that the company plans to spend as much as US$65 billion (S$87.6 billion) in 2025 to expand its AI infrastructure. REUTERS
