Meta just acqui-hired its 4th AI startup in 4 months. Dreamer, Manus, Moltbook, and Scale AI's founder. Is anyone else watching this pattern?

Quick rundown of what Meta's done since December: • Dec 2025: Acquired Manus (autonomous web agent) for $2B • Early 2026: Acqui-hired Moltbook team • Scale AI's Alexandr Wang stepped down as CEO to become Meta's first Chief AI Officer • March 23: Dreamer team (agentic AI platform) joins Meta Superintelligence Labs All of these teams are going into one division under Wang. Zuckerberg isn't just building models, he's assembling an entire talent army for agents. The Dreamer one is interesting because they were only in beta for a month before Meta grabbed them.
