OpenAI is reportedly reassessing employee compensation in response to Meta's aggressive recruitment efforts. According to an internal memo obtained by Wired, OpenAI executive Mark Chen likened the situation to a home invasion, stating that Meta's poaching of top research talent feels like "someone has broken into our home and stolen something." The memo indicates that OpenAI is "recalibrating comp" to retain its employees amidst increasing competition from Meta, as Mark Zuckerberg actively seeks to bolster Meta's AI capabilities.
