In this sense, the CEO of Meta has valued the use that is being given to the Reels since, as he has detailed, it is causing the “increased overall participation” in the applications. In fact, has also indicated that, thanks to the Reels, they are gaining share in the short-form video sectorcompeting with other leading social networks like TikTok.

Part of this success with the Reels format has to do with the investment the company has made in the recommendations and ranking system of its in-app discovery engine. As indicated by the CEO, more than 20% of the content that appears in the feeds of the accounts of Facebook and Instagram are recommended by Artificial Intelligence (AI)contributing content from people, groups or accounts that the user does not follow.

In fact, according to Zuckerberg, since Meta launched Reels in August 2020, AI recommendations have managed to increase the time users spend browsing Instagram by more than 24%.
