Not really. The problem is that pay is just capped. There's just a shortage of highly competent people across the entire planet and the only carrot you can offer is money. The federal government is banned from paying them market rate but not banned from subcontracting out the entire task.
NIST is trying to start up an AI wing with "accelerated" pay scales to attract talent. But even if they come in at the maximum allowable salary (~$317k), it's still about 600k short of being able to woo employees from OpenAI.
