> Our long term goal is to build machines that exceed human intelligence.

I remember reading back in 2012 (or was it 2011?) that you projected to have a human-level vision system by 2015 and a strong AI by 2018. How far along are you?

I think it would be much easier for you to recruit world-class ML/AI people if there was a public window into what you are doing and what results you are getting. Similar to the very impressive papers that DeepMind has been releasing.

A single paper showing impressive research would do much more for your ability to recruit top talent than grand mission statements and PR hype.

Don't take it in a wrong way, but I checked your web page, and while it looks very impressive, I have no idea how you guys are making money. Would it be OK for you to explain a bit?

Look, I want to kill all humans and grind civilization beneath my hoard of paperclips as much as the next computer scientist, but you've got to actually publish research results or the only people you'll keep fooling are venture capitalists.
