I'm curious, what are your options for starting a company based on the research you're doing at Google? What kind of ownership do they get (I assume it's not nothing)?
- raphlinus 5y agoI thought about starting a company, but that's not where my energy is, it's doing the science. Everything I do is permissively licensed open source (though if I had a chance to work on awesome rendering in a proprietary product I would not turn it down). I'll also add, I looked into academia and talked to some people about steps in that direction, for example seriously considering taking on teaching a class at UC Berkeley. But I decided that the daily grind of academia was not for me. I think I get to spend a larger fraction of my time actually working on my problems at Google than I would at a university.
