Under Zuckerberg's leadership, Meta continues to invest heavily in its super-intelligent lab, having previously released the Muse Spark series of models and accelerated iterations. The internal OpenClaw agent, originally for company use, is now being transformed into the consumer-grade Hatch, reflecting the transition from research tools to mass-market products.

On the capital front, Meta is directing substantial computing power and model investments towards a subscription-based agency platform, expanding resources from pure advertising business to premium AI services. The motivation is to capture users' willingness to pay through external service integration and tiered pricing, while strengthening foundational capabilities with the Watermelon model to narrow the gap with OpenAI and Anthropic.

This is similar to Google's consumerization of internal tools or OpenAI's transition from research to ChatGPT products; it is currently in the stage of monetizing AI agents from experimentation to mainstream, with Meta seeking differentiation through its social and instant messaging ecosystem.

Essentially, this represents a technological substitution. AI agents are shifting from auxiliary tools to consumer products capable of autonomously executing cross-platform tasks, with the mechanism being to lower the threshold for high-capability internal agents and bind them to external services, expanding the platform from content distribution to action execution, reshaping the interaction structure between users and digital services.
