Mark Zuckerberg is personally reaching out to engineers at Google Deepmind, in an attempt to lure them to Meta.
Meta is vigorously working to recruit AI engineers, utilizing a variety of strategies to draw in leading researchers. Furthermore, it's offering substantial incentives to keep current employees who are considering moving to other competitive AI firms.
Reports suggest that Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been personally contacting individuals from Google's DeepMind, writing personal emails to persuade them to join Meta's AI initiatives.
This action highlights the escalating rivalry for AI expertise, with Meta using different strategies to lure leading researchers.
Based on information from insiders who spoke to The Information, emails from Zuckerberg highlight the importance of AI to Meta and are designed to attract DeepMind employees to work for Meta. These insiders, who wished to remain unnamed, disclosed that these customized letters have successfully recruited at least one person.
Besides Zuckerberg's personal involvement, Meta has also adopted bold hiring tactics in the AI field. These involve skipping the conventional interview process and directly offering jobs to potential candidates.
Furthermore, it's been reported that Meta has boosted salary incentives for its employees who showed interest in jumping ship to competing AI firms, in a bid to keep them onboard.
The intense competition in the AI talent market has led companies such as Meta to take unprecedented steps. Due to a restricted number of skilled professionals, large tech firms are participating in ruthless hiring campaigns. This was underscored by a December article from Fortune, which outlined the aggressive atmosphere at key machine learning gatherings.
Considering the high need for AI specialists, Aravind Srinivas, the chief executive of Perplexity, an AI firm, shared his experience of trying to hire a top-level researcher from Meta.
On the "Invest Like the Best" podcast, Srinivas disclosed that the feedback he got highlighted the requirement for significant resources like the highly sought-after H100 GPUs from NVIDIA, emphasizing the intensity of the competition in the AI field.
Meta is significantly boosting its AI initiatives by pouring substantial funds into NVIDIA's H100 GPUs, intending to procure more than 340,000 units. This major financial commitment emphasizes Meta's dedication to enhancing AI functionalities across its platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
As Meta vies for supremacy with competitors such as Microsoft and its ally OpenAI, the company is not holding back in its quest for AI expertise and assets, indicating an intense struggle for control in the AI sphere.
