Meta views AI models as commoditized, focuses on product value and personal super intelligence

Meta's CTO, Andrew Bosworth, believes that advanced AI models will become a commodity, akin to databases, where consumers won't care about the specific model used. He emphasized that Meta's strategic value lies in its products and its vision for "personal super intelligence," leveraging its unique understanding of users.

The models are available. Like you can go rent a model, you can go use Anthropic, you can use Open AI, you can use Google's. They're great models. You can go get them. You can use them.
Andrew Bosworth
The real value we're going to create in the world is the product. Um, and the vision that we have for personal super intelligence, I think, is a vision that we're uniquely suited to deliver.
Andrew Bosworth
The model itself isn't the value. And I think we're going to get to a world very soon where consumers, they don't care. They don't want to specify the model they're using. They don't care if it's 4.7 or 4.8. Like, you don't care what Oracle or if I'm using Oracle or SQL databases. Like, you just want the functionality. You want the thing to work well.
