Meta is an advertising company that is primarily driven by user generated content. If they can empower more people to create more content more quickly, they make more money. Particularly the metaverse, if they ever get there, because making content for 3d VR is very resource intensive.

Making AI as open as possible so more people can use it accelerates the rate of content creation

You could say the same about Google, couldn't you?

Yea probably, but I don't think Google as a company is trying to do anything open regarding AI other than raw research papers

Also google makes most of their money off search, which is more business driven advertising vs showing ads in between user generated content bites
