Imagine yourself as a star performer in the realm of artificial intelligence, recently promoted to senior researcher at OpenAI, where you've watched the company's valuation skyrocket from a modest $20 billion to a staggering $260 billion, bringing a corresponding surge in the worth of your personal equity. Suddenly, you receive a personal call from Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, with an enticing offer: a multi-million dollar salary to join Meta's AI lab and aid in navigating its current challenges.
