Google vs OpenAI ChatGpt: Tech giants find new ways to emerge winners in AI battle?
Silicon Valley is witnessing a new kind of contest in order to dominate the field of artificial intelligence. While the scramble to attract top talent and keep them happy has always been a hallmark of the tech industry, since
ChatGPT
launched in late 2022, recruiting has escalated to professional athlete levels, a dozen people who have been involved in recruiting AI researchers told Reuters.
Companies including OpenAI and
Google
, eager to get or stay ahead in the race to create the best AI models, court these so-called 'ICs' – the individual contributors whose work can make or break companies.
Noam Brown, one of the researchers behind OpenAI's recent AI breakthroughs in complex math and science reasoning, said when he explored job opportunities in 2023, he found himself being courted by tech's elite: lunch with Google founder Sergey Brin, poker at Sam Altman's, and a private jet visit from an eager investor. Elon Musk will also make calls to close candidates for xAI, his AI company, said two people who have spoken to him. xAI did not respond to a request for comment.

Ultimately, Brown said, he chose OpenAI because OpenAI was willing to put resources – both people and compute – behind the work he was excited about.
A few top OpenAI researchers who have indicated interest in joining former chief scientist Ilya Sutskever's new company, SSI, were offered retention bonuses of $2 million, in addition to equity increases of $20 million or more, if they stayed, two sources told Reuters. Some have only been required to stay for a year in order to get the entire bonus. SSI and OpenAI declined to comment.

Other OpenAI researchers who have fielded offers from Eleven Labs have received bonuses of at least $1 million to stay at OpenAI, two sources told Reuters. Top OpenAI researchers regularly receive compensation packages of over $10 million a year, sources said.
Google DeepMind has offered top researchers $20 million per year compensation packages, awarded off-cycle equity grants specifically to AI researchers, and has also reduced vesting on some stock packages to 3 years, instead of the normal 4 years, sources said. Google declined to comment.
In contrast, top engineers at big tech companies receive an average yearly compensation of $281,000 in salary and $261,000 in equity, according to Comprehensive.io, a company that tracks tech industry compensation.

Google gives these employees three-days ‘warning' to …. or leave the company
Google is tightening its return-to-office policies across multiple divisions, requiring remote employees within 50 miles of company offices to work on-site at least three days per week or face potential job loss. The tech giant announced the expanded mandate alongside voluntary buyout programs for US-based workers in Search, marketing, research, and core engineering teams. The new policy affects employees in Google's Knowledge & Information division, which houses Search, ads and commerce operations, as well as Core engineering teams. Remote workers who live within 50 miles of approved Google offices must now transition to a hybrid 3-day schedule by September or accept severance packages. "When it comes to connection, collaboration, and moving quickly to innovate together, there's just no substitute for coming together in person," said Jen Fitzpatrick, Senior Vice President of Core Systems, in an internal memo obtained by multiple outlets.

IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Nick Fox, head of Google's Knowledge & Information group, emphasized the company's commitment to having fully engaged employees. "My goal is for every single one of us here to be all-in on building the future of our products," Fox wrote in his memo to staff. The executive made clear that high-performing employees should remain with the company, stating: "If you're excited about your work, energized by the opportunity ahead, and performing well, I really (really!) hope you don't take this!" However, Fox also offered an alternative for struggling employees: "This VEP offers a supportive exit path for those of you who don't feel aligned with our strategy, don't feel energized by your work, or are having difficulty meeting the expectations of your role." Google's crackdown on remote work continues This announcement builds on Google's ongoing efforts to reduce remote work flexibility. In April 2025, the company began requiring remote workers in various divisions to return to offices or face elimination of their positions, with some employees receiving relocation assistance to move within 50 miles of company facilities. Google has been conducting targeted buyout programs since early 2025, following widespread layoffs in 2023 that eliminated 12,000 positions. The company continues hiring while streamlining operations to focus resources on artificial intelligence development and infrastructure investments. The policy excludes employees in DeepMind, Google Cloud, YouTube, and central advertising sales divisions, though YouTube separately requires office returns for nearby remote workers.

India developing hypersonic stealth missile capable of..., entire Pakistan, most parts of China...
(Representational image: AI generated) New Delhi: India will soon test the Extended Trajectory-Long Duration Hypersonic Cruise Missile (ET-LDHCM) hypersonic missile. This missile can destroy enemy targets with a speed of 11000 km/hr and a range of 1500 km. it is equipped with scramjet engine and stealth technology. The Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) is soon going to test the ET-LDHCM as part of Project Vishnu. This hypersonic cruise missile has been built with completely indigenous technology and keeping in mind the objective of 'self-reliant India'. It is considered to be India's most advanced hypersonic technology. It can fly more than five times faster than the speed of sound. ET-LDHCM can fly at Mach 8 i.e. eight times faster than the speed of sound and at a speed of about 11,000 km/h. Its range is more than 1500 km. With this lethal range, this cruise missile can target the whole of Pakistan and most parts of China. That is, if any target in Pakistan has to be hit, then Indian fighter jets will not need to go to Pakistan or near the international border or LOC. This missile can be fired from Sukhoi or Rafale flying over Punjab or Delhi. This missile flies at low altitude. It will not move straight in the air but will move forward in a curved manner. With this speed and stealth feature, it will completely dodge the enemy air defense system. It will not be able to tracked by the enemy radar. The ET-LDHCM hypersonic missile can carry both nuclear and non-nuclear weapons. It is capable of carrying up to 1000-2000 kg of warheads. Under the completely Make in India programme, this missile has been built by DRDO in collaboration with private industry partners at Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Missile Complex in Hyderabad.

India moves to conserve its rare earths, seeks halt to Japan exports, sources say
India has requested IREL to halt rare earth exports to Japan, aiming to secure domestic supplies and lessen reliance on China. This decision follows China's export restrictions, which have impacted global industries. IREL intends to expand domestic mining and processing capabilities, seeking partnerships for rare earth magnet production, while India plans incentives for local processing and magnet facilities. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads India has asked state-run miner IREL to suspend a 13-year-old agreement on rare earth exports to Japan and to safeguard supplies for domestic needs, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters, aiming to reduce India's dependence on China IREL also wants to develop India's capacity for rare earth processing, which is dominated globally by China and has become a weapon in escalating trade wars. China has curbed its rare earth materials exports since April, pressuring automakers and high-tech manufacturers a recent meeting with auto and other industry executives, Indian Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal asked IREL to stop its exports of rare earths , mainly neodymium, a key material used in magnets for electric vehicle motors, one of the sources Commerce Ministry, IREL and the Department of Atomic Energy, which oversees IREL, did not immediately respond to requests for sources declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the a 2012 government agreement, IREL supplies rare earths to Toyotsu Rare Earths India, a unit of Japanese trading house Toyota Tsusho, which processes them for export to Japan where they are used to make 2024, Toyotsu shipped more than 1,000 metric tons of rare earth materials to Japan, commercially available customs data showed. That is one-third of the 2,900 tons mined by IREL, although Japan relies mainly on China for its rare earths Tsusho and Toyotsu did not immediately respond to requests for has been exporting rare earths due to a lack of domestic processing capacity, but following the recent disruptions to supplies of Chinese material it wants to keep its rare earths at home and expand domestic mining and processing, a second source said, adding that IREL is awaiting statutory clearances at four India may not immediately be able to stop supplies to Japan because they fall under a bilateral government agreement, the person wants this to be "amicably decided and negotiated because Japan is a friendly nation", the person Trade Ministry said in a statement to Reuters: "We would like to refrain from answering questions about bilateral exchanges in general, not just about this matter."China's recent export controls on rare earth materials have rocked the global auto industry, which has warned of supply chain disruptions and production also weaponised its supplies in 2010, when it briefly stopped shipments to Japan. That prompted the Japanese to turn to India for rare has the world's fifth-largest rare earth reserves, at 6.9 million metric tons, but there is no domestic magnet production. India relies on imported magnets, mainly from the fiscal year to March 2025, India imported 53,748 metric tons of rare earth magnets, government data showed. These are used in automobiles, wind turbines, medical devices and other manufactured earth mining is restricted to IREL, which supplies India's Atomic Energy Department with materials for nuclear power projects and defence-related applications. India lacks wide-scale technology and infrastructure to mine rare earths, and the development of any commercially viable domestic supply chain is years away, analysts has a rare earths extraction plant in the eastern Indian state of Odisha and a refining unit in Kerala, in southern India. The miner, founded in 1950, plans to produce 450 metric tons of extracted neodymium in the fiscal year to March 2026 with a plan to double that by 2030, the second person is also looking for a corporate partner for the production of rare earth magnets for the auto and pharmaceutical industries, the person is firming up plans for incentives to companies to set up rare earth processing and magnet production facilities to meet local demand, people familiar with the matter told Reuters earlier this month.
