Meta finalized the hire within a week, securing an AI leader with a compensation package combining salary, bonus, and stock tied to long-term results.

Meta Platforms has reportedly offered a more than $200 million pay package to poach Apple’s top executive in charge of artificial intelligence models, as the Facebook parent builds up its new “Superintelligence” AI division.

Ruoming Pang previously ran Apple's in-house team that trained the AI foundation models that underpin Apple Intelligence and other on-device AI features.
