Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg rebranded his social media empire as Meta three years ago .

Zuckerberg said he hoped the metaverse would reach a billion people and conduct “ hundreds of billions” of dollars worth of commerce.

Since then, Meta has invested more than $63 billion in virtual and augmented reality technology.

Meta 's Ray-Ban smart glasses have found success, with more than 730,000 units sold in first three quarters .

Zuckerberg unveiled Orion in September , which showcases how AI could power next-generation augmented reality.

If Orion becomes the go-to infrastructure for AI tools, that would give Zuckerberg the same kind of control he once held over social networking.
