Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) has recently shifted from being one of the most unloved stocks in the artificial intelligence trade to a name with strong positive sentiment behind it. In about two months, META has gone from being down more than 17% in 2026 to up several percentage points on the year.
The release of Meta’s Muse AI agent has been critical to changing the narrative around the stock, representing a new potential AI growth driver. Meanwhile, its Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full models are Meta’s most intelligent models yet, and have given the company a seat at the table when it comes to being a frontier model developer.
