Looking at VR and Meta. They absolutely can be wrong. So even after investing what seems to be enough, there might not be any payoff.

And the investors were correct to crush the stock price down to 90-odd dollars. Which finally forced Zuck to face the music.

This place is full of bozos.

Did Zuck change because the stock price went down or he was dissatisfied with the lack of progress/adoption?

There may be no payoff in the end, but it won't be for lack of resources thrown at the problem or investor impatience.
