Bride-To-Be Excited for Vacation Wedding in 12 Hours, Then the Phone Rings
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A bride-to-be was preparing for her destination wedding, but, just 12 hours before takeoff, she received an earth-shattering phone call. Lauren Bosworth, from the U.K., posted a clip on TikTok (@laurenb4120) of her last day in the office before becoming a married woman. The 37-year-old was due to fly from London Heathrow to Cape Town, South Africa, where her fiance and his family live. From left: Lauren Bosworth walks down a pretend aisle in her office with paper confetti being thrown. From left: Lauren Bosworth walks down a pretend aisle in her office with paper confetti being thrown. @laurenb4120 The couple met while working in America in 2019 and later had a son together, but the COVID-19 pandemic and strict U.K. visa rules kept them apart for years. "I reunited with my partner for the first time in five years last July, [which was] also the first time he met his son," Bosworth told Newsweek. She was about to leave her office at 5 p.m. when her mom called. "My colleague picked up and told me my mom was in the hospital, [and] I assumed it was her," Bosworth said. "I picked up the line; her words to me were, 'Don't panic, but I'm in A & E [ER] … and he's covered in blood.' I immediately just went into mom mode." A colleague rushed Lauren to the hospital, where she saw her young son in a blood-soaked school shirt and a large white bandage wrapped around his head. "My heart just broke," Bosworth said. The wound was too large for stitches in the emergency department; due to his age, he had to be admitted to the children's ward to undergo surgery under general anesthesia the next morning—the day of Bosworth's flight. "I hadn't really had the time to comprehend the thought about missing a flight," she said. "It wasn't until my mum apologized and blamed herself for messing it up that it really hit me. Obviously, it was no one's fault, and these accidents happen." Bosworth informed doctors about their upcoming flight and promised to do everything they could to help them. At one point, she stepped outside the hospital to call her fiance in South Africa—and the weight of the situation hit. "There was a big possibility I would miss the flights and would not be going," Bosworth said. "I was so focused on making sure my little boy was OK that I couldn't quote comprehend or think clearly on what to do." As a single mother, the thought of losing the £2,000 [$2,740] flights was devastating for her. It would also cost a further £500 [$685] to change them. After a sleepless night in hospital—still in her work clothes—Bosworth waited for her son to come out of surgery. Her child, whom she asked to remain anonymous, needed 30 stitches. Once he was out of surgery and eating, her mom told her to go home and get ready just in case they could make it. Thanks to a flurry of support from hospital staff, the family was discharged just in time. They left the hospital at 4:45 p.m. and drove straight from their hometown in Leicester to London. "I honestly didn't think we would make it," Bosworth said. "It was a rush through check-in and security and they had to test his medicine, but we got on. [We were] absolutely exhausted, but we were going to make it." Bosworth was delighted to inform Newsweek that she is now a "Mrs." and her son will make a full recovery. "If anything, I think he is just more careful on stairs now," Bosworth said.

Meta snags more OpenAI talent after Sam Altman says his best people are not leaving
Meta is doubling down on its artificial intelligence ambitions, intensifying its hiring spree by luring a growing number of researchers from rival OpenAI. Over the past few weeks, Meta has quietly poached several high-profile AI scientists from OpenAI, including Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov, and Xiaohua Zhai, all based at OpenAI's Zurich office. Trapit Bansal, a key figure in OpenAI's research team, also recently joined Meta. But this is not it. The Information revealed that four additional researchers, Shengjia Zhao, Jiahui Yu, Shuchao Bi, and Hongyu Ren, have also made the switch to Meta, adding further fuel to speculation about aggressive recruitment flurry of departures from OpenAI has drawn attention from across the tech industry, not least because of a viral claim made by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman that Meta was dangling signing bonuses worth up to $100 million to attract top talent. While Altman suggested that none of OpenAI's "best people" had accepted the offer, employees are moving to Meta in just a blink. At an all-hands meeting held shortly after Altman's remarks went public, Meta's Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth addressed employee questions head-on. According to The Verge, Bosworth pushed back strongly, accusing Altman of dishonesty and exaggeration. 'He's known to stretch the truth,' Bosworth said, adding that while Meta might offer substantial packages for certain roles, the idea of a blanket $100 million sign-on was 'wildly misleading.' Bosworth clarified that only a 'very, very small number' of extremely senior individuals might receive compensation packages in that ballpark—and even then, it wouldn't take the form of a straightforward signing bonus. 'It's far more complex than a one-off cheque,' he credibility to Bosworth's rebuttal, the researchers at the centre of the controversy—Beyer, Kolesnikov, and Zhai—took to X (formerly Twitter) to confirm they had joined Meta, but dismissed the $100 million figure as 'fake news.' Their collective denial further underscores the murky nature of compensation disclosures in Silicon Valley's high-stakes AI timing of these hires is particularly notable. Meta recently unveiled its Llama 4 family of AI models, which received a lukewarm reception compared to expectations reportedly set by CEO Mark Zuckerberg. The company's AI strategy has faced criticism, especially concerning benchmark transparency and performance metrics. In this context, the addition of elite researchers from OpenAI may be a strategic move to bolster Meta's AI credibility and future himself appears to be taking a hands-on approach. Reports suggest he has personally reached out to AI professionals with lucrative offers and is spearheading efforts to bring in talent from across the sector. During the internal meeting, Bosworth hinted that more high-level recruits from OpenAI were on the way, though he declined to reveal further a separate push to expand its AI footprint, The Wall Street Journal reported that Meta has invested $14 billion in Scale AI, a startup founded by Alexandr Wang. - Ends

OpenAI employee set to join Meta calls the ‘$100 million signing bonus' fake news
In the last few months, Meta has been poaching AI researchers left and right to its superintelligence lab by paying them hefty 'signing bonuses', which some say amount to $100 million. However, this might not be the case. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Lucas Beyer, who is currently working at OpenAI and will soon join Meta, says that the $100 million sign-up bonus is 'fake news.' Beyer also confirmed that he will be joined by Alexander Kolesnikov and Xiaohua Zhai, who are currently working at OpenAI. Last week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that Meta was trying to poach AI researchers from his company by offering them bonuses of $100 million. In a podcast hosted by OpenAI, Altman claimed that 'Meta started making giant offers to a lot of people on our team' and that 'at least, so far, none of our best people have decided to take them up on that.' According to a report by The Verge, when Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth was asked about the '$100 million signing bonuses', he said, 'Sam is just being dishonest here. He's suggesting that we're doing this for every single person…Look, you guys, the market's hot. It's not that hot.' Bosworth added that Altman is trying to counter all these offers and that it 'is not the general thing that's happening in the AI space.' The Meta CEO went on to say that there are a couple of more people joining the company, but declined to share details. However, Bosworth wasn't the only Meta executive to mention OpenAI at the internal meeting. CPO Chris Cox said that instead of building a ChatGPT-like AI chatbot that helps people with things like writing work emails, Meta wants to differentiate its AI offerings by focusing 'on entertainment, on connection with friends, on how people live their lives.' Compared to Google and OpenAI, Meta is finding it hard to compete in the AI race. However, the Mark Zuckerberg-owned company recently built its superintelligence team and is on a hiring spree. Recently, Meta purchased a 49 per cent stake in Scale AI and hired its 28 year old CEO Alexandr Wang to lead its newly formed team.
