Meta Platforms (META) has strategically recruited two significant AI experts from Apple (AAPL, Financial), Mark Lee and Tom Gunter, to join its new "Superintelligence Labs." This move underscores CEO Mark Zuckerberg's commitment to prioritizing AI development within the company. Previously, Ruoming Pang, who led AI model initiatives at Apple, also transitioned to Meta. Rumors suggest that Meta offered a total compensation package exceeding $200 million to secure these talents.
These hirings are part of Meta's broader strategy to enhance its capabilities in artificial intelligence, which is seen as a crucial area for future growth and competitive advantage.
