It is indeed, correct. The annealing example I linked is from his team (here's another one with full citation with Martinis at the end there [0]). And if you want further proof that Martinis and the Google Quantum team are pursing quantum annealing look no further than the Adiabtic Quantum Computing Conference that was held this summer where their team held several talks including "Building Quantum Annealer v2.0" [1].
And I didn't touch on your earlier (erroneous) comment on the scientific community's perception of D-Wave, but I think it needs to be said that in actual professional circles the research they're performing isn't met with as much derision as they seem to garner in these more causally informed settings. It's hyped and a difficult subject to understand, so that's fair, but I suggest really informing yourself if you're going to go out there and make the claims you're making.

- ThePhysicist 10y agoI actually did my PhD on superconducting quantum computing with Transmon qubits, so I really wouldn't say that I'm only "casually informed" about the subject. Again, their digital adiabatic quantum computing relies on a gate-based quantum processor, which provides a universal set of qubits gates and thus can in principle simulate any Hamiltonian, quantum annealing is just an algorithm that runs on it. And I don't want to be overly negative, but the perception of D-Wave in "more professional" circles was not very enthusiastic in my experience, which to a large extent is also D-Waves fault.
