Estimated read time 5 min read


While it didn’t start on time, once Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg took the stage at Meta Connect 2024 for the opening keynote it’s safe to say that it was a fast-moving and news-making event. Zuck and co showed off a ton of AI tools – including new celebrity voices and live translation for Meta AI, new hardware in the shape of the Quest 3S and a futuristic-looking AR glasses prototype, and AI updates for the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses.

You can catch up with everything that was announced at our Meta Connect live blog, including some hot takes from our Editor-at-Large Lance Ulanoff, who was at the event, but below, we’re sharing the six biggest things that Meta unveiled at its Connect keynote.
