Meta is pursuing talent from Thinking Machines Lab (TML), founded by ex-OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, as part of their Superintelligence unit. Despite reaching out to approximately 50 employees and offering deals exceeding $1 billion, no TML staff have left. Mark Zuckerberg's quiet approach includes personal outreach and interviews with executives like Andrew “Boz” Bosworth. Industry leaders, including DeepMind's Demis Hassabis, view this as a rational strategy, though skepticism remains about its effectiveness in closing the gap with OpenAI.
