However, according to The Wall Street Journal, the main purpose of the agreement was to bring back Shazir, who left Google in 2021. Today, he returns to the company as vice president and is developing Gemini, its cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology.
Famous for his research in the field of generative artificial intelligence, Shazir co-authored the famous article “All you need is attention”, which laid the foundation for the development of modern artificial intelligence technologies.
After leaving Google, he founded the startup company Character.AI, which quickly attracted investment and was valued at $1 billion.
The deal not only brought Shazier back to Google, but also brought about 30 Character.AI employees to the company, including co-founder Daniel de Freitas.
