GoogleAi core, Jeff Dean, left to start AI
On 6 August, Jeff Dean, one of the earliest employees of Google (GOOG.O), who has been in charge of designing the company's artificial intelligence strategy for the past 15 years, will leave the company to set up an artificial intelligence start-up that focuses on areas of scientific discovery. Dean joined as the 30th employee of Google in 1999. He will be Chief Executive Officer of a new public interest company called Discovery Loop. The company aims to accelerate technological development by automating complex, multi-step scientific and engineering tasks. In addition, there are senior Google staff, Oriol Viennas, Quoc Le and Sanjay Ghemawat. The sum of four has contributed to important advances in mathematics and protein structure and is one of the most frequently cited researchers in the world. The departure of such talent from Google, including Dean, has further exacerbated the recent trend of AI brain drain in the company。
