Mark Zuckerberg's months - long "talent - hunting" achievements are truly amazing.

Among them, 50% of the members are from China; 75% have doctoral degrees, and 70% of the members were previously researchers.

In terms of institutions, 40% are from OpenAI, 20% from DeepMind, and 15% from Scale AI.

In addition, 20% are top - level experts at the L8 level.

It's worth noting that LeCun is also on the list, serving as the Chief Scientist.

According to previous reports, these people are likely to receive an annual salary of between $10 million and $100 million.
