# Zuckerberg says Meta’s AI agent progress is slower than expected

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Mark Zuckerberg admitted at an internal Meta town hall that the company's agentic AI development has not accelerated as expected in the four months since a major restructuring. Despite projecting up to $145 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year and reassigning roughly 7,000 employees into AI roles, the anticipated progress from tools like Anthropic's Claude Code has not materialized. Zuckerberg acknowledged the reorganization was messier than ideal and that bets made in January and February 'haven't come to fruition yet,' though he expects more significant benefits within three to six months. Separately, Meta's CTO Andrew Bosworth addressed an internal controversy over a paused mouse-tracking and keystroke monitoring tool, confirming no employee data was used to train AI models and that the program may resume on an opt-in basis.
