Probably the goal is not to develop one chip, but several, each for a specific purpose.
It starts with information processing in-house.
Facebook has more than 2 billion users and therefore generates monstrous amounts of data every day.

Own chips can make the companys data centers more streamlined in processing this information.
But Facebook has also been working with consumer hardware, its worth remembering.
Divisions like Building 8 are developing devices for a relatively near future.

A smart speaker would be among them.
In turn, the Oculus division already provides equipment for virtual reality.
Note that the Oculus Go uses a chip originally intended for smartphones.

However, the tech giant Google did not comment on Shahriar Rabiis departure yet.
