They've said something to that effect a long time ago. Back when they were first getting into the self diving car game they said that more people die of car accidents than cancer and it was more important to them. They're number driven, if the numbers say they'll make more money somewhere else, that's where they'll go.

Making money is not mutually exclusive. Google is already bloated with cash (it pays dividends). The are able to invest in both self driving cars and cancer cures at the same time.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
