At the recently held Meta Connect2024 conference, Meta's founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, excitedly announced that the monthly active users of Meta AI have approached 500 million, and it is poised to become the world's most widely used AI assistant.
Zuckerberg mentioned in his speech: "We are almost reaching 500 million monthly active users, and we haven't even launched in some major markets, such as Europe." This news undoubtedly fills people with anticipation for the future of Meta AI.

Additionally, Meta has specifically launched a lightweight model that does not use European user data for promotion in the European market.
