Apple's internal leadership restructuring around AI and ML continues after Meta's industry-wide poaching program snipes a top executive from the Apple Intelligence team.

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.
