He doesn't want to be known to everyone for a single product or app. His ambition is to create a lasting medium that connects people around the world and helps transform lives. He sees this as the central point of the identity of the technology company Meta.
Meta is actually more about creating a medium. Meta is not interested in any particular app. Mark talks about the future of Meta in an interview. Meta strives to develop basic means for people to connect. Meta doesn't just want to make apps. Mark Zuckerberg said, 'If you look back 20-30 years from now, we want to be a technology company.
Now we are not an app company. While not all of Meta's ventures are successful, Meta is taking risks. Making various innovations. I want everyone to look up to us in the future. Then it will be said, we have really done a great job. Meta may not have done everything, but Meta has shown a new direction to the industry and the world. This risk-taking mindset has guided Meta from the start and is shaping the future.'
Mark Zuckerberg also talked about Meta's evolution and rebranding. In 2004, Zuckerberg launched Facebook in his dorm room at Harvard University with his friends. Zuckerberg has been a talked-about technology entrepreneur ever since Facebook debuted as a social media platform.
Mark Zuckerberg has been one of the world's tech leaders for two decades because of Facebook. Facebook acquired Instagram in 2012 and WhatsApp in 2014. Later all the institutes merged and started working under Meta. Meta started its journey in 2021. Meta is actually the metaverse, or virtual universe, through which Mark Zuckerberg is focusing on integrating the digital and present world.
Meta is working on a variety of device enhancements and wearable technologies for the future world. Apart from developing software, Meta also manufactures various types of devices. Quest has made the recently unveiled Orion AR (augmented reality) glasses meta along with the mixed-reality headset. Meta has made significant investments in Nvidia's AI chips and wearable technology.
Meta is keeping pace with the competition in the wearable technology market. Much of the technology discussed, including Apple's Vision Pro headset, is not making much of a splash in the market, just like the Mate headset's competitors. Even if these devices do not do well in the market, Meta is still there to create surprises. AR glasses are called Meta's current invention. "We've never thought of ourselves as just a social media or website," Zuckerberg said.
Like other leaders in the technology world, Mark Zuckerberg thinks about the future of his company. Technology and creativity were connected through Steve Jobs. Elon Musk is working in many ways to colonize Mars and ensure humanity's future beyond Earth. Zuckerberg wants to push the boundaries of people's online and offline connections with Meta. Zuckerberg wants to make a name for himself by reshaping the way people communicate in the digital world.
