Recent departures include Yan Zhijie and Bo Liefeng, two senior figures at Tongyi. Yan, who joined Alibaba in 2015, was an early member of the company’s cutting-edge Damo Academy and later led Tongyi’s speech lab.
JD.com did not directly comment on Yan’s recruitment, but said on Monday that “Explore Academy is proceeding as planned, actively recruiting top AI talent from across the industry, including technical experts and members of our Tech Genius Team”.
Separately, Bo, who headed Tongyi’s applied vision division after previous roles at JD.com and Amazon.com, recently transitioned to Tencent’s Hunyuan AI model team, Chinese media reported.
