Thinking Machines Lab co-founder Barrett Zoff has changed employers again. Earlier this year, he suddenly switched to OpenAI due to a dispute with Thinking Machines Lab CEO Mira Murati. Alphabet's Google said on Thursday that Zoff will join the company as vice president of research. “We look forward to Barrett returning to Google and bringing his expertise in RL and post-training to Gemini,” Google spokesman Thomas Schoenfeld said in a statement. RL, or reinforcement learning, is an AI training technology.
