Wall Street is validating Meta‘s efforts to create the artificial intelligence big brother with more investment. According to CNBC:Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg plans to ramp up his company’s spending on artificial intelligence in 2026. Wall Street seems fine with that strategy. That’s nearly twice the amount Meta spent on capex last year, when the company revamped its AI unit. Although investors have previously expressed concern about Meta’s AI spending spree, they took comfort in the company’s latest results, which showed 24% year-over-year revenue growth, driven by online ads.
