Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is aggressively recruiting top AI researchers from elite institutions and companies like OpenAI and DeepMind. To lure them, Meta is offering compensation packages reportedly as high as $100 million — with some rare cases even exceeding $300 million — along with unlimited access to GPUs, a key resource in AI development.
Meta recently spent $14 billion investing in Scale AI and appointed its young founder Alexandr Wang, alongside former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman, to co-lead its new “Superintelligence Labs,” aiming to build AI smarter than humans.
Despite the massive salaries and resources, some top researchers have declined Meta’s offers, citing concerns about the company’s direction and mission. Still, with Zuckerberg personally leading the charge and investing billions, Meta remains a major contender in the global AI talent race — one that could determine who shapes the future of artificial intelligence.
