The legendary Google co-founder, Sergey Brin, is a core contributor to Gemini, apparently coding hands-on for the project. No matter how much he is worth, an engineer is an engineer at his core, and nothing eats that away.
According to Aravind Srinivas, Sergey was at Stability AI launch party last year chatting with Ashish Vaswani, the inventor of Transformer. Instead of small talk, Sergey asked him very low-level technical questions like why he picked sinusoidal position embeddings and whether he had tried other variants.
Passion never dies.
Such things.
