I'm curious how you would even know? If Google is making ML breakthroughs, I think it's quite obvious they won't be immediately publishing them if they are actually commercially useful.
- kcanini 9y agoOn the contrary, Google has a very large number of publications every year at top AI conferences.
- phil21 9y agoRight, but I'm saying once they actually hit commercially useful breakthroughs (e.g. AI game changer/black swan) they certainly won't be sharing them any longer. Or put another way, they could currently be holding back 90% of their current research and only releasing 10%. I'm not saying that is the case, it's just I think private research into some fields is much more opaque than folks (myself) realize. Relying on Google (or any other private company) to publish findings is likely not a path for long-term success.
- eanzenberg 9y agoYeah and that's fine.. hedge funds do this all the time too. You trade name recognition for money.
