At this year’s Meta Connect event, Mark Zuckerberg caught everyone’s attention not just for unveiling the Orion augmented reality glasses but also for his striking outfit. The Meta CEO wore a custom T-shirt that featured the Latin phrase “aut Zuck aut nihil,” which translates to “all Zuck or all nothing.” This bold fashion choice has sparked conversations online, capturing the attention of both tech enthusiasts and casual viewers alike.

Zuckerberg has always had a fascination with ancient Rome, even naming his children after notable Roman emperors. So, when he stepped on stage in a shirt echoing the legendary phrase “aut Caesar aut nihil” (meaning “either a Caesar or nothing”), it made a statement about his aspirations for both himself and his company.

This latest fashion statement is a departure from the past three years, during which Meta faced significant challenges, including stock declines and layoffs. However, Zuckerberg seems to be making a comeback, showcasing a renewed confidence as he pivots from the metaverse narrative to the realm of augmented reality.

The T-shirt’s message—”all Zuck or all nothing”—reflects Zuckerberg’s determination to lead in the tech world, suggesting that he is ready to take risks for extraordinary achievements. As he introduces innovative products like the Orion AR glasses, it feels like Zuckerberg is not just looking to compete, he aims to dominate the field.

How people reacted to Zuckerberg’s t-shirt

  • Who Genzified Mark Zuckerberg? Good job!
  • It was Aut Ceasar, Aut Nihil. It was actually before Facebook existed so no Zuck on the radar
  • I want this shirt. “Aut Zuck, Aut Nihil,” translate to “Either Zuck or Nothing”
  • Zuck fit check: Seems to be rocking a shirt with a derivative of the Latin phrase “aut Caesar aut nihil,” meaning “either Caesar or nothing,” “either Emperor or nothing” or “all or nothing”
