AI new hires trigger tensions and threats of desertion by longtime Meta employees
-
At least 8 AI longtime researchers and engineers have left the company two months after Zuckerberg announced Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL).
-
Two researchers who recently joined MSL also left the company after less than a month and returned to OpenAI.
Assessment
I think it’s normal to see some turnover after a major restructuring. However, it’s definitely something to watch, especially if the turnover is occurring among the new hires.
