Meta Poaches Top Researchers from OpenAI, AI Talent War Intensifies: Meta has successfully poached three top computer vision researchers from OpenAI: Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov, and Xiaohua Zhai. These three are the key contributors behind important vision models like ViT and SigLIP, and previously co-founded OpenAI’s Zurich office. This move is seen as further evidence of Meta CEO Zuckerberg personally recruiting talent to build artificial general intelligence (AGI). In response to Meta’s offensive, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated he is not worried, claiming that their best talent has not left. This poaching incident highlights the scarcity of top AI talent and the fierce competition among tech giants in the AGI race. Talent has become a key strategic resource that will determine the future landscape of AI. (Source: dotey, Teknium1, scaling01)
