Meta Platforms is doubling down on its AI ambitions by hiring the team behind ‘Dreamer’, a startup focused on creating intelligent digital assistants. The move is part of Meta’s growing push into “AI agents”, systems that can act on their own to help users with tasks like managing schedules, sending emails, or organizing information.
The Dreamer team includes its founders and key developers, many of whom previously worked at leading tech companies. They are now joining Meta’s Superintelligence Labs, the company’s hub for cutting-edge AI research. This addition is expected to accelerate Meta’s work in creating autonomous, agent-driven AI solutions.
Dreamer, which launched earlier this year, specialised in tools that let people design personal AI helpers. Meta has licensed its technology to integrate into its projects while Dreamer continues as a separate entity. Financial details of the deal remain undisclosed.
This comes on the heels of Meta’s acquisition of ‘Moltbook’, a social network built for AI agents to interact with each other. Together, these moves show that Meta is aiming for more than simple chatbots; the company wants AI systems that can think, act, and collaborate independently.
Meta’s Superintelligence Labs, led by Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang, is rapidly expanding. With experienced developers from companies like Google and Stripe, the lab is positioning itself as a hub for next-generation AI innovations.
By bringing in the Dreamer team and leveraging Moltbook, Meta is betting on autonomous AI as a key part of its future. The company aims to make digital assistants smarter, more capable, and better integrated into daily life.
The strategy reflects a broader tech trend: companies racing to build AI that doesn’t just respond but proactively assists users. Agentic AI could transform how people interact with technology, automating everyday tasks and acting as intelligent partners in work and life.
