Alexandr Wang notes Meta Superintelligence Labs sits in South Bay — "so if someone you don't know is trying to talk to you, you KNOW something is up," a nod to relentless poaching. Hanchung Lee adds that MSL being in South Bay while Meta HQ is on the Peninsula, plus Rosewood shuttles and WeChat groups, completes the AI talent-war lore.
