The Meta Platforms company is looking to get into the AI humanoid robot industry, while the Meta stock gained another 3% this week, rallying 900% since October 2022.
The Meta stock has been rallying since the coronavirus dip ended in October 2022, with share prices at around $88. Since then the upside momentum has been very strong, with the 20 SMA (yellow) acting as support on the weekly chart, which confirms that the buying pressure is strong. In the last three weeks alone the price has rallied 25% higher, from $600 lows to $740.
Meta’s Shift from Social Connection to AI Robotics
Meta Platforms is undergoing a major transformation, shifting its focus from connecting people to developing artificial intelligence-driven robocops. Reports on Friday revealed that the company is considering a significant investment in AI-powered robots, directly competing with Elon Musk’s ambitions in the same field.
A Strategic Move into AI-Powered Robotics
Meta appears to be taking a two-pronged approach to its robotics venture. Initially, the company plans to develop robots capable of performing household tasks, an area that has long been a target for AI and automation. However, in the long run, Meta seems more focused on the software and AI that will drive these machines rather than the physical hardware itself. Instead of manufacturing robots, Meta aims to create the intelligence that powers them, leaving the physical construction to specialized robotics companies.
Leveraging Existing AR and VR Expertise
A key advantage for Meta in this space is the extensive data it has already gathered through its investments in virtual and augmented reality. Over the years, the company has collected vast amounts of information on how humans perceive and interact with their surroundings through its VR and AR devices. By leveraging this data, Meta believes it can develop AI models that will form the foundation of next-generation humanoid robots.
Competition with Apple and Hiring RealReal’s CEO
In addition to robotics, Meta is also expanding its AI wearables division, seemingly in competition with Apple. To drive sales in this segment, the company is reportedly hiring the CEO of RealReal, a move that suggests a stronger push into AI-powered consumer technology.
A Long-Term Vision for AI Robotics
Despite its aggressive push into AI robotics, Meta acknowledges that truly functional humanoid robots are quite a few years away. The company envisions a future where its AI serves as the core intelligence system for robots created by external manufacturers. While widespread adoption of such AI-powered robots remains distant, Meta is positioning itself as a leader in the race to develop the software that will eventually power them.
As the company pivots toward AI-driven robotics, its strategy could redefine not only the future of artificial intelligence but also how humans interact with machines in everyday life.
