Meta announced a major change in its internal evaluation system: beginning in 2026, all employees will be assessed based on their ability to use and understand artificial intelligence tools. This new requirement reflects the company’s goal of accelerating its adoption of AI across all departments, from product development to customer support.
According to the company, workers will need to demonstrate that they can apply AI to improve productivity, optimize internal workflows, and contribute to innovation within their teams. This shift highlights Meta’s intention to position itself as a leader in the competitive AI landscape.
The new evaluation criteria will include the use of generative AI tools, automation systems, and Meta’s own AI platforms. The company explained that training programs and internal certifications will be offered to ensure that employees have the necessary skills before the new system is implemented.
Why is Meta making AI proficiency mandatory?
Because the company believes that artificial intelligence will soon be essential for almost every task in the tech industry. By ensuring that all employees master these tools, Meta expects to boost efficiency, reduce operational costs, and strengthen its long-term strategy in the evolving world of advanced technologies.
