In an article by Sara Fischer, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg outlines the company’s launch of Meta Compute, a new top-level initiative focused on scaling AI infrastructure. Fischer reports that Meta plans to build tens of gigawatts of computing capacity this decade, with ambitions to expand far beyond that over time, positioning infrastructure as a long-term strategic advantage. The effort will be led by senior engineering executives and coordinated with newly appointed president Dina Powell McCormick, signaling a more direct, hands-on approach from Zuckerberg. The article also highlights how formalizing Meta’s infrastructure strategy may help the company navigate increasing political and community scrutiny around data centers, including concerns over energy use, water resources, and local economic impact.
