今日主播袁勇：

美国科技巨头Meta的日子最近不好过。

近日，美国新墨西哥州陪审团裁定，Meta因在产品安全问题上误导用户、存在“不公平商业行为”，被判支付3.75亿美元罚款。

洛杉矶一陪审团也认定，Meta需为一名年轻女性的社交媒体成瘾承担责任，判令赔偿420万美元，这是美国陪审团首次判定大型社交媒体公司需为其成瘾性产品负责。

接连落地的两项判决，标志着美国司法体系对科技平台监管迎来重大转折。

此外，投资者对Meta在人工智能数据中心上的激进投入持谨慎态度，该公司今年资本支出计划高达1350亿美元。

Meta的内部管理也引发员工不满：一方面重金挖角外部人员空降担任高管，领导AI业务，另一方面却大幅裁员，并且至今未能推出具备市场竞争力的AI产品。

多重利空消息下，Meta股价两天下跌12%。社交基本盘受到法律冲击，AI产品迟迟不见起色，Meta正陷入旧业务承压、新业务迷茫的尴尬境地。
