Welcome to the world, Aurelia Chan Zuckerberg! You’re such a little blessing.
Happy birthday to my favorite person! (Or, as August likes to call her, the main character in our family.)
Happy New Year! Here’s to all of the adventures and love coming in 2023.

@leomessi’s World Cup post is now the most liked in Instagram history. WhatsApp also reached a record 25 million messages per second during the final.
Last year @ufc #1 pound-for-pound fighter @alexvolkanovski stopped by Meta HQ to train with me and for fun we tested the limits of our performance avatars with motion capture in our @engage gear. Good luck this weekend Alex!
When Priscilla and I started working on the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s science mission to help cure, prevent or manage all diseases, our first major project was launching the Biohub. It has been very successful, so today we’re launching a second Biohub in Chicago that will engineer miniaturized sensors to instrument living tissues to help scientists see and understand how cells work together. We’re going to start by instrumenting skin and heart tissues with an initial focus on measuring inflammation. About 50% of deaths are caused by diseases related to inflammation, like cancer and heart disease, so we’re hopeful the technology created at the Chicago Biohub will have broad applications for science and health similar to the San Francisco Biohub.
Launching Instagram Channels — a new way to get chats from your favorite creators. Link in bio to join my new channel — Meta Channel 📢 — where I’ll post product and tech news before anywhere else.
Today we’re launching Communities on WhatsApp. It makes groups better by enabling sub-groups, multiple threads, announcement channels, and more. We’re also rolling out polls and 32 person video calling too. All secured by end to end encryption so your messages stay private.

Meta AI built the first speech translator that works for languages that are primarily spoken rather than written. We’re open sourcing this so people can use it for more languages.
Introducing Notes on Instagram — a new space to share thoughts, ask questions, or post a status right above your DM inbox.
Fencing in the metaverse with Olympic gold medalist and world’s #1 ranked @leetothekiefer and 2x Olympic medalist @gerekmeinhardt. Using our new high-end VR headset coming out next month with mixed reality — meaning you can see virtual objects (like your friends fencing) alongside the physical world around you.
Excited to see @mackenziedern fight tonight in Vegas. Thanks @danawhite for inviting us!
Quest Pro is the start of a new way to do collaborative and creative work in the metaverse. Mixed reality lets you create and bring digital objects into the physical world around you. Face expression sensors let your avatar match your gestures and expressions for more natural interactions. I’m looking forward to seeing what you all build with this new technology.
Quest v50 rolling out soon with Direct Touch that lets you interact in VR and mixed reality with hand gestures — much more natural.
Excited to finally show you all the new Meta Quest Pro we’ve been working on!
Quest Pro ships today! Mixed reality to bring virtual objects into the physical world is here.
Mixed reality recording landing in Quest v47, like this one from @donalleniii

WhatsApp is far more private and secure than iMessage, with end-to-end encryption that works across both iPhones and Android, including group chats. With WhatsApp you can also set all new chats to disappear with the tap of a button. And last year we introduced end-to-end encrypted backups too. All of which iMessage still doesn’t have.
Our Instagram engineering team developed a way to dramatically improve video quality. We made basic video processing 94% faster so we can now use more advanced codecs like the one on the right. This is especially helpful on slower internet connections, but it improves the experience for everyone.
