<h3 id="market-position-and-competition">Market Position and Competition</h3> 
<p>Meta’s rapid deployment of AI features across its platforms appears to be outpacing efforts by competitors such as Google and Apple. <br><br>While Apple recently announced its Apple Intelligence AI features and Google has been promoting AI adoption, Meta’s cloud-based approach is already in beta testing, potentially reaching a broader consumer base due to its larger install base.</p> 
<p>CEO Mark Zuckerberg has teased an upcoming “full holographic” glasses product, described as the “most advanced piece of technology on the planet in its domain.” <br><br>While not immediately available for purchase, this product underscores Meta’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of AI and augmented reality technologies.</p>
