Founder Dario said he is worried that employees join Anthropic for money. In the United States, top artificial intelligence laboratories have very frequent personnel turnover. Recently, many artificial intelligence researchers from Google have joined Company A or OpenAI. Since the United States has previously banned competition restrictions in related industries, there is no problem for artificial intelligence researchers to frequently change jobs. Of course, researchers who want to poach competitors must first pay a high enough salary. In fact, many researchers also change jobs to get higher salaries. For example, Company A will offer very high salaries to researchers. However, unexpectedly, Company A founder Dario is worried that people join Company A just for money. You come to work for money! Well-known publication AXIOS recently published a report on the war for talent. In this report, AXIOS quoted sources as saying that Dario Amodei, founder and CEO of A, is increasingly concerned that new employees join the company for money rather than for the company’s mission. After AXIOS published this report, the relevant news immediately attracted attention on social media. Most of them were jokes. For example, some netizens posted "Breaking News: People work for money" and "Locals have discovered the way to the economy." In fact, the salary level of Company A is even higher than OpenAI, so now Dario is complaining that people come to work for money, which is really puzzling. Loyalty depends on whether the salary is high enough: However, the current trend in the industry is that whichever company offers a high enough salary level can obtain more AI talents. AXIOS said that these companies can buy researchers’ time, but long-term loyalty cannot be bought, and those laboratories with the highest bids (actually, Company A) are often the first to realize this. This is exactly contrary to the mission of these laboratories that "money is not the purpose". AXIOS also analyzes the potential dangers caused by this frequent poaching. Scientific research relies on trust and personnel continuity, and frequent personnel turnover will interrupt projects and force laboratories to pay double for the same group of core talents. There are currently more than 400 former Apple employees working at OpenAI, and Apple is suing OpenAI over trade secret issues. Such frequent poaching will only leave lawsuits and half-finished jobs in the end. via cnBeta.COM - Chinese industry information website (author: source: bluedot.com)
