$Meta Platforms (META.US)$ shares closed at a new record after Founder and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg posted an update on the company's artificial intelligence build, investing in $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$'s most powerful AI chip.
$Meta Platforms (META.US)$ 創始人兼首席執行官馬克·扎克伯格發佈了該公司人工智能建設的最新情況，投資於 $英偉達 (NVDA.US)$最強大的 AI 芯片。
Shares advanced 2% to $383.45 in New York Friday. That surpasses the previous record high posted in 2021.
週五，紐約股價上漲2％，至383.45美元。這超過了2021年創下的歷史新高。
The tech giant also got a boost from optimism that financial results due for release on Feb. 1 will confirm sustained solid growth for the company that saw its stock climb 180% in the past 12 months. CFRA, an independent research provider, raised its target price on the stock to $430, from $390 ahead of its earnings release.
這家科技巨頭的樂觀情緒也提振了這家科技巨頭，即定於2月1日公佈的財務業績將證實該公司的持續穩健增長，其股票在過去12個月中上漲了180％。獨立研究提供商CFRA在業績發佈前將其股票的目標價格從390美元上調至430美元。
"We see increasing opportunities tied to Reels, Advantage+ shopping campaigns, Llama, business messaging, AI agents, and the metaverse," MT Newswires quoted CFRA analysts as saying.
MT通訊社援引CFRA分析師的話說：“我們看到與Reels、Advantage+購物活動、Llama、商業信息、人工智能代理和元宇宙相關的機會越來越多。”
On average, analysts expect Meta to report fourth-quarter earnings of $4.97, more than doubling from $1.76 a year earlier, as revenue expands, according to estimates published by Yahoo Finance.
"We're building massive compute infrastructure to support our future roadmap, including 350k H100s by the end of this year -- and overall, almost 600k H100s equivalents of compute if you include other GPUs," Zuckerberg said in the post on Instagram, referring to Nvidia's chip.
Nvidia's H100 is the most powerful graphics processing unit (GPU) chip on the market specifically for artificial intelligence applications, enabling the processing of large amounts of data much faster than older GPUs, according to a post on the World Economic Forum website.
Zuckerberg said Meta's long-term vision is to build general intelligence, open source it and make it widely available. He also said he's "excited over our progress building new AI-centric computing devices like Ray Ban Meta smart glasses."
"Lots more to come soon," Zuckerberg said, without providing more details.
根據雅虎財經公佈的估計，隨着收入的擴大，分析師平均預計，Meta公佈的第四季度收益爲4.97美元，較去年同期的1.76美元翻了一番多。
扎克伯格在Instagram的帖子中談到英偉達的芯片時說：“我們正在建設龐大的計算基礎設施，以支持我們未來的路線圖，包括到今年年底的35萬臺H100——如果包括其他GPU，總體而言，將近60萬臺相當於H100的計算。”
根據世界經濟論壇網站上的一篇文章，Nvidia的H100是市場上專門用於人工智能應用的最強大的圖形處理單元（GPU）芯片，它使處理大量數據的速度比舊的GPU快得多。
扎克伯格說，Meta的長期願景是建立通用情報，將其開源並廣泛使用。他還表示，他 “對我們在開發以人工智能爲中心的新計算設備（例如雷朋Meta智能眼鏡）方面取得的進展感到興奮。”
扎克伯格說：“即將推出更多內容，” 但沒有提供更多細節。
