Naomi Gleit talks about her boss and AI

Naomi Gleit works at Meta. She is the longest-serving employee. Only Mark Zuckerberg works there longer. She joined Meta almost 20 years ago. She was the 29th employee. Now she is head of product. She says working at Meta is her dream job. Her mom was disappointed. Her mom wanted her to work for Lehman Brothers. Lehman Brothers collapsed in 2008. Meta is still strong. Meta has problems too. There are privacy scandals. There are election rigging accusations. There are teen mental health crises. There are toxic online harms. Gleit says the company sometimes did not meet its standards. She is proud of many things. She says the motto "move fast and break things" was misunderstood. She says Mark Zuckerberg's bad guy reputation is unfair. Some people think he is cold and robotic. But Gleit says he is a great husband and a great dad. He has three little kids. She says he is an awesome boss. Meta has a new product: AI agents. They are like advanced chatbots. They can answer questions. They can carry out tasks. Small businesses can use them. Meta plans to charge firms. The AI agents will run WhatsApp chats. They will work day and night. They give business insights. Gleit says safety is the priority. AI will transform the workforce. Gleit is optimistic. She says new jobs will come. Her job as product manager did not exist before the internet. Meta recently laid off 10% of its staff.
