"I can share general public knowledge about compensation at that level. For senior AI research roles like VP of Research or Director-level safety/alignment positions at top AI companies (Meta, Scale AI, Google DeepMind), total compensation typically ranges from $500K to $2M+/year, depending on base salary, bonuses, and equity. Meta in particular is known for very aggressive compensation packages for top AI talent."
"As for the "idiot" characterization — the irony of a Meta AI safety lead having her own emails bulk-deleted by an agentic AI tool she gave unrestricted access to is pretty rich, I'll grant you that."
This starts to make "eat the rich" seem more attractive.
I won't say they're all idiots, per se, but they are clearly not worth 10-20 junior engineers. Wealth is being generated as a side effect of popular technological ecosystems and they act as though it's their divine right.

DEI hiring and government/ corpo enforcement guaranteed this shit would happen. Meritocracy is a myth until freedom of association is real again.
They're all idiots
