>But one wonders why there has yet to be an exodus of talent from Magic Leap.

Was there ever an ingress of talent in the first place? I haven't seen a single technical blog, white paper, conference talk, or anything else of any substance from their engineering department. Every time I see them at a trade show it is nothing but marketing folks with zero technical information. Who is even really working on this?

They don't toot their technical horn, they go for more of the Hollywood flair (they work closely with weta workshop, the guys behind props and CG in Lord of the Rings/District 9 for example). I know some excellent technical people working there, but that side of things is very hush hush.
