Top OpenAI researcher refutes Altman's claims
Technology
Lucas Beyer, who recently left OpenAI for Meta, has pushed back on CEO Sam Altman's claim that Meta lured away OpenAI staff with $100 million signing bonuses.
Beyer called the rumor "fake news" and said the numbers just aren't true, offering a rare public correction to Altman's story.
Meta has hired Beyer along with 2 other researchers
Meta has hired Beyer along with two other top researchers from OpenAI's Zurich office—Alexander Kolesnikov and Xiaohua Zhai—as it tries to boost its AI team.
Even though there's buzz about huge bonuses, this move mostly shows how seriously big tech companies are competing for AI talent right now.
