FT says Moonshot has kept one of China’s strongest AI research teams intact

A repost comments on a Financial Times profile of Moonshot founder Yang Zhilin, focusing on how he kept the company’s research team together during China’s fierce AI talent war.
The quoted FT post says:
- China’s AI race has turned into a battle for talent
- larger tech groups are aggressively poaching from smaller startups
- Moonshot has still held onto one of China’s strongest research teams
The reply is mainly critical of FT’s caricature-style cover art, but the substance is the talent-retention story around Moonshot.
