Would tend to say the opposite. Google kept the PVC a secret until found in the pixel 2. We did not know about the TPU until used in production for a while.

Would tend to say the opposite. Google kept the PVC a secret until found in the pixel 2. We did not know about the TPU until used in production for a while. We did not know about the gen 2 TPUs until done. There is a long list of Google doing things and never sharing. Kind of the opposite of what you suggest.
- ChuckMcM 9y agoI agree with you, I think I said it badly. Google is very secret about what they do and what capabilities they possess. If Urs had his way nothing they ever did would ever leave the building :-). But there are times when circumstance leads to a hint of what they are doing to leak out. When that happens, Google is pretty good at getting the narrative out that misleads about their actual capability. The real capability can be 100x what external sources might lead you to believe.
