In the note, shared internally and viewed by the New York Times, Brin urges staff working on Google’s Gemini AI projects to put in long hours to help the company lead the race in artificial general intelligence (AGI).
Some have praised Brin’s commitment to pushing the company’s success, but others argue that his approach reflects an outdated and harmful mindset.
“The hustle-centric 60-hour week isn’t productivity—it’s burnout waiting to happen,” wrote workplace mental health educator Catherine Eadie in a post shared by LinkedIn’s news editors.
Others said they feel that hard work is essential for success, with a COO of a business analytics business writing, “Brin is just being honest—successful people have always put in long hours."
Irony alert: pushing humans harder while building AI to replace them—brilliant strategy, Sergey.
😾
people like this shouldn’t be allowed to finish their sentences on their own terms. it should be cut short by an extreme force.
Has there ever been a better call to eat the rich?!
Brin is retarded. He’s disconnected just like all the other billionaires. There’s a reason musks teams are made of teenage dipshits
When is technology going to make our lives better?
Only if it’s for two people - 30 hours each!
Sergi can eat donkey dick.
Fuck work
Outside of the google office would be a sweet spot for a guillotine.
I honestly think it’s more like 30. If we’re all just making numbers up.
Lol. Yeah. Shut up. Its not. Proven not.
It is if your an ineffective manager trying to justify their salary in a time of economic crisis.
double the salary is also a very sweet spot for productivity
Rich asshole says out of touch moronic thing. More at 7.
Google
—Do most harm—
I have found out that my productivity goes down after about 6 hours of work. And even if the productivity is seemingly the same (e.g. when I worked at cigarettes factory), I unsurprisingly made more mistakes when tired. Although I must say I am more tired when I do boring shit (or nothing lol) in office job than on production line, but it’s just me.
