He's become a tyrant who has left people in fear of what they say. He's started losing all sense of guilt for what he's done to Banquo and Duncan, which he shows by killing Macduff's family.

He's still weak because of his reaction to Banquo's ghost but after seeing him he begins to feel better because he believes he has put his ghost at rest and is no longer haunted by Banquo. Also, you can say Macbeth created Banquo's ghost in his imagination because he feels the guilt (he can't bring himself to say he's murdered Banquo) and until he can admit what he's done, that's when his feelings of guilt and remorse deteriorate
