Apple Loses Another Key AI Executive to Meta in Ongoing Talent Exodus

Apple's AI ambitions hit another roadblock as the tech giant loses yet another key executive to Meta, highlighting the ongoing talent exodus that's undermining the company's efforts to catch up in the artificial intelligence race.
Details:
Apple’s Head of ChatGPT-like AI search, Ke Yang, is leaving for Meta just weeks after being appointed to lead Apple’s AKI team. The group is developing ChatGPT-style web search features for Siri, a core part of Apple’s major Siri revamp planned for March. Yang was a key leader in the project
Apple has faced several major AI departures this year. Around a dozen members of its Foundation Models team have left, including founder Ruoming Pang and senior researcher Chong Wang. Many have joined Meta’s Superintelligence Labs, suggesting coordinated talent poaching
Yang’s exit disrupts Apple’s March timeline to compete with OpenAI, Perplexity, and Google Gemini in AI search. His Answers feature was central to Siri’s ability to handle complex, data-driven requests. The team currently reports to Benoit Dupin
The talent drain highlights Apple’s growing struggle to retain key AI experts, threatening its ambitious plans as rivals like Meta aggressively recruit its top talent.

Claude Haiku 4.5 Matches GPT-5 Performance While Cutting Costs by 67%

Anthropic has unveiled Claude Haiku 4.5, the latest iteration of its lightweight AI model, which promises enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of the cost and significantly quicker than its predecessors.
Details:
The model matches Sonnet 4’s performance at one-third the cost and over twice the efficiency. It scores 73% on SWE-Bench verified and 41% on Terminal-Bench, rivaling GPT-5 and Gemini 2.5 in reasoning and tool use. It’s a cost-effective, high-performance option
Haiku 4.5 is available to all complimentary Anthropic users, ideal for reducing server demands while maintaining strength. Its lightweight design supports multiple agents running simultaneously or alongside larger models
Anthropic CPO Mike Krieger says the model supports hybrid setups where Sonnet handles planning and Haiku agents execute tasks swiftly—“a complete agent toolbox.” It’s set to influence tools like Claude Code, with early adopters calling it “a wave of expanded possibilities”
The release follows Sonnet 4.5 by two weeks and Opus 4.1 by two months, keeping Anthropic at the forefront of practical, production-ready AI.
