Meta's Zuckerberg hand-delivers soup to OpenAI researchers in rare talent bid, highlighting non-monetary competition for top AI talent.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly hand-delivered homemade soup to OpenAI researchers in a bid to recruit them, according to OpenAI’s chief research officer Mark Chen.
The gesture, described as a shift from financial incentives like $100 million bonuses, highlights the fierce competition for a scarce pool of elite AI talent.
Chen confirmed the deliveries and said he now outsources high-end Korean soup to match Meta’s efforts.
Despite aggressive recruitment, OpenAI has retained most key staff, attributing loyalty to shared mission and belief in artificial general intelligence.
The "soup wars" underscore a growing trend where personal connection and cultural alignment are becoming as important as financial offers in the race for top AI minds.
