OpenAI says Meta is trying to poach staff with $100mn sign-on offers
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on the Uncapped podcast on Tuesday that Meta offered $100 million signing bonuses to his top AI staff but none have left.

- Meta delayed its latest flagship AI model amid capability concerns while OpenAI plans to release an open AI model soon and explores AI-powered social media apps.

- Altman suggested Meta’s compensation-based strategy has so far failed to attract OpenAI’s top talent, implying that mission-driven innovation sustains retention amidst intense AI industry rivalry.
