    1. Apr 29, 2026Partially right.
      “by the end of 2026, brands will be able to simply tell Meta their objective and budget, and the platform will handle everything else.”

      As of April 29, 2026, Meta has advanced AI tools for ad creation and optimization (e.g., Advantage+ campaigns automate targeting and creative), but full end-to-end automation from objective/budget input alone is not yet universally available for all brands; partial implementations exist for select objectives like direct response.

    1. Oct 23, 2012Called it.
      “Over the long term, we believe that the opportunity to monetize mobile and feed-based ads is at least as big as, and likely bigger than, the opportunity we’ve had on desktop.”

      Within several years, the majority of Facebook’s ad revenue came from mobile feed ads, exceeding desktop revenue, clearly realizing Zuckerberg's prediction.
