Everything James Manyika said on any show that made the record, most notable first. Each card names its show and opens the statement there.
Manyika: Useful quantum computing applications will emerge within five years
“So I actually think we're going to start to see useful applications in the next five or so years from quantum computing.”
Manyika: Google aims to conduct AI training runs in space by 2027
“So the first milestone is we're hoping that in 20, 27 will have done a couple training runs in space.”
Manyika: Google Willow chip solved 10-septillion-year benchmark in under five minutes
“Our Willow chip, for example, hit a big milestone. It was a big enough deal about a year, year and a half ago where, you know, it was able to do in, you know, a computation, a benchmark computation called RCS, which would take a classic frontier supercomputer,…”
Manyika: Google demonstrated below-threshold quantum error correction
“For the first time, we're able to show that you can do what's called below threshold error correction, which is as you scale up the system, the error rates are actually going down, which is exactly what you'd want, as opposed to that they're actually going up.”
Manyika: Google demonstrated first useful quantum computation for molecular spin dynamics
“Last year we were able to show probably the first useful computation. These are quantum echoes results. It was a big enough deal made the cover of nature, which is great. Our teams are excited about that. What that showed was an actual useful computation for f…”
Manyika: 20% of Google Labs projects stem from employee 20% time
“So if you think about the things that are in labs, I would say something like maybe. 80% of them came out of people actually in the labs team. The other 20% came from 20% stuff.”
Manyika: Google's flood AI covers 150 countries and 2 billion people
“Now, fast forward to today, we're making these river and flood predictions covering a 150 countries and places where more than two billion people live.”
Manyika: Google DeepMind develops specialized AI models for Waymo's autonomous driver
“And then you've got all these other, you know, special kind of ambitious projects working on things like Genie build world models. You've got work going on to build special things for Waymo and enhance the models that Waymo's that lead to Waymo, the Waymo driv…”
Manyika: NotebookLM originated as Project Tailwind with a five-person team
“So it started out as a protocol tailwind. There were four, five people working on it.”
Manyika: 3.5 Million Researchers Across 190 Countries Access AlphaFold
“You now have three and a half million researchers accessing it in over a 190 countries.”
Manyika: Google releases new Gemini model generations every five to six months
“We now kind of on the cycle that Gemini models where every five, six months, there's the latest generation.”
