Meta Appoints Ex-OpenAI Scientist Shengjia Zhao to Lead New Superintelligence Lab
Zhao, previously a research scientist at OpenAI, played a pivotal role in creating GPT-4 and various lighter models such as version 4.1 and o3. He is among at least eight researchers who have recently transitioned from OpenAI to Meta. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Meta Platforms has appointed Shengjia Zhao, a leading figure in the development of OpenAI's ChatGPT, as chief scientist of its newly launched Superintelligence Lab. This high-profile move marks a significant step in Meta's accelerating drive to position itself at the forefront of advanced artificial intelligence. CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared the announcement on Friday through Threads. He said Zhao will guide the lab's scientific direction and collaborate closely with both Zuckerberg and Meta's Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang. Wang joined the company earlier this year after Meta took a substantial stake in his former company, Scale AI. Zhao, previously a research scientist at OpenAI, played a pivotal role in creating GPT-4 and various lighter models such as version 4.1 and o3. He is among at least eight researchers who have recently transitioned from OpenAI to Meta. The influx of talent signals Meta's intent to rapidly close the distance with competitors in the race toward building artificial general intelligence. The creation of the Superintelligence Lab is part of Meta's broader efforts to establish a premier AI research division. The lab is distinct from FAIR, Meta's long-standing AI unit led by deep learning pioneer Yann LeCun. While FAIR has focused on foundational research, the new lab aims to develop what Zuckerberg has described as full general intelligence. Zuckerberg also confirmed that Meta plans to open-source the work produced by the Superintelligence Lab. This strategy has drawn mixed reactions within the AI community, with some praising the transparency and others warning of risks linked to such openness. Meanwhile, Meta's recruitment campaign has unsettled OpenAI. Internal messages leaked this month revealed OpenAI Chief Research Officer Mark Chen comparing Meta's tactics to "someone breaking into our home and stealing something." In response, OpenAI is reportedly reassessing its compensation practices and offering staff additional time off to curb further departures. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has publicly criticised what he views as profit-driven hiring practices. He alleged that Meta has lured researchers with offers reaching USD 100 million in signing bonuses, a claim dismissed as exaggerated by Meta's Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth. However, reports of even higher offers, including an unverified USD 1.25 billion compensation package over four years, illustrate the escalating competition for elite AI talent. While Altman argues that OpenAI's mission-focused approach offers a stronger long-term foundation, others in the industry see Meta's strategy as justified. Google DeepMind's CEO Demis Hassabis called the hiring surge a rational response given Meta's desire to catch up. With over USD 14 billion invested in AI infrastructure and partnerships, Meta is making its intentions clear. The addition of Zhao and other key hires underscores the company's determination to lead—not just follow—the next wave of AI development.

Musk Announces Deal With Samsung For Tesla AI Chips Made In Texas
Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced late on Sunday that Samsung will manufacture the car maker's next-generation AI chip at its upcoming Texas semiconductor plant as part of a deal worth $16.5 billion, in a significant boost for Samsung's struggling chipmaking arm. Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced that Samsung will manufacture Tesla's next-generation AI chips. Getty Images In a post on X, Musk announced that 'Samsung's giant new Texas fab will be dedicated to making Tesla's next-generation AI6 chip,' adding: 'The strategic importance of this is hard to overstate.' In a regulatory filing made in South Korea shortly before Musk's announcement, the electronics giant announced it had secured a $16.5 billion contract with a 'large global company.' The multi-year deal will run through till the end of 2033, and Samsung's semiconductor fabrication plant in Taylor, Texas, is scheduled to begin operations in 2026. In a follow-up post, Musk said Samsung has agreed to 'allow Tesla to assist in maximizing manufacturing efficiency,' but he didn't specify whether this meant Tesla would assist in bringing the plant into operation. Musk pointed out the Samsung fab 'is conveniently located not far from my house' and claimed he would walk the production line 'personally to accelerate the pace of progress.' Musk pointed out that Samsung currently manufactures Tesla's AI4 chip. The billionaire said his company has completed the design for the AI5 chip, which will be manufactured by TSMC, Samsung's primary chipmaking rival. According to Musk, the AI5 chips will be first manufactured in Taiwan and then later at TSMC's Arizona plant. How Have The Markets Reacted? Shortly after the announcement, Samsung Electronics' Seoul-traded shares surged 6.22% to $50.6 (KRW 70,000).

Samsung to Make Tesla AI Chips in $16.5 Billion Multiyear Deal
(Bloomberg) -- Samsung Electronics Co. will produce AI semiconductors for Tesla Inc. in a new $16.5 billion pact that marks a win for its underperforming foundry division. The High Costs of Trump's 'Big Beautiful' New Car Loan Deduction Can This Bridge Ease the Troubled US-Canadian Relationship? Trump Administration Sues NYC Over Sanctuary City Policy South Korea's largest company announced on Monday that it secured the 22.8 trillion won chipmaking agreement, which will run through the end of 2033. The plan is for an upcoming plant in Taylor, Texas, to produce Tesla's next-generation AI6 chip, Tesla chief Elon Musk said on X, confirming a Bloomberg News report. Samsung's Seoul-traded shares rose as much as 5%, to their highest since September. A company spokesperson declined to comment, citing confidentiality terms in its contract. 'The strategic importance of this is hard to overstate,' the Tesla chief executive officer and X owner wrote. Musk, 54, will walk the production line himself and has been authorized by Samsung to assist in optimizing production, he said. The contract win comes as Samsung has been steadily losing ground in chip manufacturing. The company, which makes its own memory chips and also fabricates semiconductors on behalf of clients, has had difficulty bringing in enough orders to fully utilize its foundry capacity. It has postponed completion of construction and operational ramp-up of its new Texas fab to 2026. 'Their foundry business has been loss-making and struggling with under-utilization, so this will help a lot,' said Vey-Sern Ling, managing director at Union Bancaire Privee in Singapore. 'Tesla's business may also help them to attract other customers.' That's in contrast to leading chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., which still cannot meet all demand. TSMC held a dominant share of 67.6% of the global foundry market in the first quarter this year, according to Taipei-based TrendForce. Samsung's share slipped to 7.7% from 8.1% in the previous quarter. What Bloomberg Intelligence Says Samsung Electronics' new contract to supply semiconductors implies a recovery in its foundry business' 2-nanometer generation chip production. The $16.5 billion contract spans 2025-33 and could boost Samsung's foundry sales by 10% annually, we calculate. — Masahiro Wakasugi and Takumi Okano Click here for the full research Samsung and TSMC are both on pace to deliver the next generation of semiconductor advancement — moving to 2-nanometer fabrication — and the new deal is seen as a signal of confidence for the company's upcoming fabrication technology. --With assistance from Seyoon Kim, Linda Lew and Abhishek Vishnoi.
