"Competitor bad, says businessowner"
he co-founded deepmind, which was acquired by google. he also worked at google itself (left last year). he knows a fair bit about google and its inner workings, especially in regards to ai tech integration into its various properties. so more than just a 'competitor' or 'businessowner'
I mean, he’s not wrong in the sense that Google’s paradigm of leveraging ads and data harvesting and monetization on literally everything is a cancer.
