This looks like a personal manifesto from an engineer who doesn't even attempt to write it on behalf of Google? The title is significantly misleading.

- capableweb 3y agoAgree, misleading title. The introduction makes the context clear, but probably too late to not call the article click-bait. > [...] It originates from a researcher within Google. [...] The document is only the opinion of a Google employee, not the entire firm. [...]
- dpflan 3y agoCompletely agree. It is interesting, but the gravitas of it seems lower than of course if an executive said this and corroborated it. I do feel that opensource for AI is going to be really interesting and shake things up.
- opportune 3y ago99% of media coverage like “Tech employee/company says <provocative or controversial thing>” are exactly like that.
