The entire article is very confusing re: Google/Alphabet - I thought that Boston Dynamics now rolled up through Alphabet, and was totally separate from Google. Or is the author just pretending/ignoring the Google/Alphabet reorg. Or just doesn't know?

Regardless, seems like the sort of thing that should get a mention at least.

I think it's just that even though the company formally is called Alphabet now, people still call it Google and that's fine. Not like Alphabet/Google is working hard on rebranding or something.
