If LinkedIn titles are to be believed, we might have more "Heads of AI" at companies than the lines of code being written by AI. Sounds like silicon valley is reliving the Gold Rush with more mine bosses than actual gold coming out.

Can’t wait for this amazing Seattle weather. So excited to bundle up in multiple layers, slip on rain boots and enjoy the thrilling experience of driving 5 mph or sliding 10 mph on the road.

Jk, I’m out. See ya in 🇹🇭. ✌️🌴☀️

Even after 15 years, every visitor I bring to the Google office has the same reaction: pure amazement. 🫢

Their jaws drop. 👀 Their eyes widen and the questions just start pouring in - "Is this a slide?!" 🛝 "Can I play FIFA on that playstation?" 🎮

Thanks to our amazing workplace services team 🙌
