Google's Sergey Brin Urges Workers To the Office at Least Every Weekday

Sergey Brin, Google co-founder, has instructed employees working on Gemini AI products to be in the office at least every weekday, suggesting 60 hours a week is the ideal productivity level. This directive comes as Brin warned of intense competition in the development of artificial general intelligence, where machines match or surpass human intelligence. Brin expressed confidence in Google's ability to win this competition, but emphasized the need to significantly increase efforts. The guidance does not change Google's official policy, but Brin also criticized employees who put in minimal effort, calling it demoralizing to others.
