Meta Hires Top Apple AI Researcher as Part of AI Recruitment Push (WSJ. 20250708)
Meta Platforms has hired another top name as part of a weeks-long recruitment push. Apple AI researcher, Ruominig Pang, is joining Meta's new Superintelligence AI division, and is set to receive a pay package in the tens of millions of dollars according to people familiar with the matter. This is the latest in a string of expensive hires by Mark Zuckerberg as Meta seeks to regain momentum in the AI space. Last week, Zuckerberg announced 11 hires for the new lab, including researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Anthropic. Samsung Electronics expects its second-quarter operating profit to more than halve from a year earlier due to U.S. trade restrictions. Delays in supplying advanced AI chips to Nvidia also contributed to Samsung's down earnings. The South Korean tech giant attributed the plunge in earnings guidance partly to its one-off recognition of inventory value losses from U.S. export controls. The company said customer evaluation and shipments of its advanced memory chips are proceeding, while operating losses in its non-memory business are expected to improve in the second half of the year. And Amazon Prime Day starts today, but this year, it'll stretch over four days instead of two. This comes as the retailer aims to lure in more shoppers and Prime members. The sale is expected to bring in a record $12.9 billion in the U.S. according to research firm EMARKETER, a 53% jump from last year. Also, according to EMARKETER, during this year's Prime Day event, shoppers will likely be focused on buying electronics and other goods that could be hit by tariffs later in the year.
메타가 채용 공세를 이어나감. 애플의 AI 연구원인 Ruominig Pang는 매타의 Superintelligence AI 부서로 이직했으며 월급은 수천만일 것으로 예상됨. 지난 주 메타는 OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic로부터 연구원 11명을 채용함. 한편, 삼성전자는 미국의 무역 규제 때문에 2분기 영업 이익이 전년 대비 절반이라고 발표함. 삼성이 고급 AI 반도체를 엔비디아에 공급하는 기한이 늦어지면서 삼성 실적에 부정적 영향을 끼침. 미국 수출 규제로 인한 재고 가치 손실을 1회성으로 인식한 것도 한 요인임. 삼성전자는 고객 평가 및 운송이 진행 중이며, 하반기에 비메모리 사업이 개선될 것이라고 언급함. 한편 Amazon Prime Day이 오늘 시작해 4일 간 이어짐. 프라임 회원을 더 끌어들이기 위해서임. 이번 행사를 통한 미국 매출은 전년 대비 53% 증가한 129억 달러가 예상됨. 이번 행사에서 소비자는 관세를 부과받을 품목이나 전자기기를 구매할 것으로 보임
