The Rundown: Meta continued its recruiting raid of OpenAI with four more researchers (now eight in all) moving to Mark Zuckerberg’s new superintelligence unit, with a WSJ report shedding new light on the CEO’s “secret list” of AI prospects.

The details:

Meta reportedly hired four more researchers from OAI, including key contributors to o1, o3-mini, and GPT 4.1 — joining the four from last week.
The WSJ reported that CEO Mark Zuckerberg has a secret list of top AI talent he’s been personally recruiting with massive pay packages.
Zuckerberg reviews AI papers for potential researchers, and runs a group chat called “Recruiting Party” where executives discuss tactics and prospects.
Meta's CTO called Sam Altman "dishonest" for comments on alleged $100M bonuses, saying the OpenAI CEO is unhappy because Meta is succeeding.
An OpenAI internal memo from Saturday was obtained by WIRED, with CRO Mark Chen addressing the moves and reassuring staff.
