And I disagree violently. The deepmind folks are on salary and every year they need to prove that they are worth the money. This applies to Demis himself: he needs to prove that his org deserves this gaziliion of dollars per year.

My point is they are not constrained to working on ads, or anything specific, and their work is not pointless.
