Zeyuan Allen Zhu announced his resignation from FAIR. He specifically thanked the organization for the massive compute resources provided, including an allocation of 400 H100/200 GPUs, over a thousand H100s borrowed from the CodeGen team led by Gabriel, thousands more from a legacy cluster in early 2025, and access to thousands of idle and low-priority GPUs across FAIR. He noted that this compute was crucial for making his research possible.
