> that is where efforts should be focused Are all humans fungible? You don't think it's valuable to have some errant geniuses trying to think of weird and creative ways to solve climate change through unconvential engineering? It's not as though they'd be good politicians.

Of course yes, that's valuable. But the political focus shouldn't be lost in the messaging. Google needs to take a political stand on Climate Change, first and foremost. The engineering investment is secondary. We already have the technology to solve our climate problems. We don't need the fancy AI solutions. We just need to implement what we have already right now. That needs to be made abundantly clear to everybody. If Google is asked "what are you doing to address Climate Change?" and we hear predominantly engineering talk, then they're being disingenuous.
