Meta Platforms Inc. has made unusually high compensation offers to
new members of its "superintelligence" team -- including a more than
$200 million package for a former Apple Inc. distinguished engineer.

Meta hired Ruoming Pang, who ran Apple's AI models team, with a pay
package in the hundreds of millions over a several-year period,
according to people with knowledge of the matter, who declined to be
named discussing unannounced compensation details. Apple didn't try
to match the offer, as it far exceeds pay at the company for leaders
other than Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook.
