Meta Platforms (META, Financials) hired four more artificial intelligence researchers from OpenAI, The Information reported Saturday, as the tech giant continues to aggressively expand its AI capabilities.

The new recruitsShengjia Zhao, Jiahui Yu, Shuchao Bi and Hongyu Renhave agreed to join Meta, according to a person familiar with the matter. Earlier this week, Meta also hired three other AI scientists from OpenAIs Zurich office: Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov and Xiaohua Zhai, as reported by The Wall Street Journal.

The hiring spree highlights Metas accelerating push into high-end AI research, especially in the realm of superintelligence, a term CEO Mark Zuckerberg has recently used to frame the companys long-term ambitions in the space.

Neither Meta nor OpenAI responded to requests for comment from Reuters.

The move adds to growing competition for elite AI talent, as companies seek dominance in next-gen AI models, infrastructure, and research leadership.
