Meta failed in its attempt to recruit staff for OpenAI.

The CEO of OpenAI stated that Meta had offered generous salaries of over $100 million per year to many of his talented employees, but so far, none of them have accepted.

In an interview aired on June 17, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated that Meta – OpenAI's competitor and Facebook's parent company – had previously offered salaries of up to $100 million to attract talent from the ChatGPT developer to bolster their generative artificial intelligence (AI) team.

Altman, co-founder of OpenAI, clarified that Meta had offered generous salaries of over $100 million per year to many of his top employees, but so far, none of them have accepted.

Meta has not yet responded to the information. Previously, the social media giant had invested billions of dollars in AI technology in an increasingly fierce race with rivals such as OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft.

Back in January, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated that the company planned to invest at least $60 billion in AI this year, with the ambition of becoming a leader in this technology field.

In the latest development last week, Meta signed a deal worth over $10 billion with Scale AI, a company specializing in data labeling for training AI models.

Under the agreement, Scale AI founder and CEO Alexandr Wang will join Meta to support the company's AI development efforts, including its ambition to develop superintelligence.

According to US media reports, Meta offered annual salaries of hundreds of millions of dollars to Scale AI's leaders.
