Google is undergoing a major reform!

On Thursday, April 18th, Google sent a notice to its employees announcing a structural adjustment to its AI team, aimed at simplifying and accelerating the development process of AI technology.

Firstly, Google plans to merge the model-building teams scattered across the research department and DeepMind. After the merger, all related work will be centralized under DeepMind, allowing the team to focus more effectively on developing new AI technologies.

Secondly, Google is also moving the team responsible for ensuring the safety and ethical standards of AI technology from the research department to DeepMind. This will ensure that ethics experts can be more directly involved in the construction and management of AI models during the development process.

Additionally, Google plans to create a new department called "Platforms and Devices" (referred to as PA). The purpose of this department is to facilitate better collaboration among teams responsible for data science, product development, human resources, and engineering technology. This structure will enhance information flow and resource sharing among teams, thereby improving work efficiency and innovation capabilities.

Google's CEO Sundar Pichai is excited about these changes and plans to share more information about these developments during next Thursday's earnings conference call.

Following the announcement, Google's stock price rose slightly by 0.71% during trading hours.
