Meta AI (FAIR) — Cumulative Losses: $70 billion
The source text directly states: 'Since late 2020, Meta's Reality Labs division has logged over $70 billion in cumulative losses.' This matches the claim's exact stored value of 70,000,000,000 (70 billion) and confirms it is a cumulative total since late 2020 (~5 years as of January 2026). The temporal context (January 2026 layoffs announcement) and the characterization as cumulative losses (not annual) also align perfectly with the claim.
