“Physical Intelligence CEO Karol Hausman told employees the reports weren't true via a Slack message containing a gif of a character from 'The Office' shaking her head no. The article notes this wasn't the world's most vigorous denial.”
“The only place that was really embracing that view was Google Brain. So I decided to join Google Brain right out of my PhD.”
