Family daily active people (DAP), a metric Meta uses to track unique users who open any one of its apps in a day, rose about 5% from a year earlier to 3.35 billion.
Meta’s results come after Chinese startup DeepSeek’s launch of its latest AI models triggered a selloff in global tech stocks on Monday on concerns about rising AI costs in the US.
DeepSeek has said its models either match or outperform top US rivals at a fraction of the cost, including Meta’s own Llama models, challenging the prevailing view that scaling AI requires vast computing power and investment.
