Rishabh Agrawal on Meta offer: It was far higher than $1 million

Rishabh Agrawal, an IIT Bombay graduate and AI entrepreneur, has clarified that the reported $1 million offer from Meta was actually higher than stated. Agrawal left Meta after working there for five months, citing a desire to pursue his own AI startup rather than accept the financial incentive. He emphasized that while the offer was lucrative, the opportunity to innovate independently aligned more closely with his long-term goals. Agrawal's decision reflects a growing trend in India's tech community, where young professionals are increasingly choosing entrepreneurship over traditional corporate roles. His background includes stints at Google Brain, DeepMind, and Meta, along with academic achievements such as a PhD in Artificial Intelligence.
