I know this is tough for everyone, and I’m especially sorry to those impacted.” On the need to become more capital efficient, Mr Zuckerberg said the company has shifted resources onto a smaller number of high-priority growth areas such as its AI discovery engine, ads and business platforms, and its long-term vision for the metaverse.

Formerly named Facebook, the company changed its name to focus on the metaverse, a virtual reality world that has yet to be fully developed.
