Hello Everyone!

I would first like to say that its been a long time coming and I am finally glad that I can be a part of the Neowin family. I was first introduced to this site in early 2012 by boss/buddy known to you all as user smeltn. I have always loved technology since the time my mother bought me a SNES and I took the thing apart before I even even played it! Needless to say, I did not get the system to ever work again and my poor mother did not buy me another system until I about 4 years later, but from that point on, I have taken a keen interest in gadgets and how they work.

I have worked in the IT field for over 10 years now and I also own my own computer repair business but I am also taking online classes to further my education in the IT community. I look forward to the future of technology and I want someday hopefully leave my mark on this planet by bringing something innovative to the world of technology too. I'm no Bill Gates or Steven Jobs, but I believe I have what it takes to make something out of nothing and the drive to help push technology further. I look forward to pitching in and helping others with questions on neowin and also everyone opinions on different matters. Godspeed to everyone and looking forward to making new friends here! #NEOWINBOUND!

Ken A.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
