According to Sam Altman, Meta has offered OpenAI employees up to 100 million USD in aggressive signing bonuses. This extreme tactic is part of Meta’s efforts to build their AI superintelligence team.
Mark Zuckerberg is personally overseeing recruitment efforts for Meta’s new AI division. Meta aims to compete directly with top AI firms like OpenAI, emphasizing its commitment by investing 14.3 billion USD in Scale AI.
Despite high offers, Altman believes OpenAI’s mission-driven culture plays a crucial role in employee retention. He argues that financial incentives alone cannot eclipse the meaningful work being done at OpenAI.
