Google DeepMind extends an olive branch to a thousand Ask me anything (AMA) participants.

After Alibaba approved the resignation application of Lin Junyang, the core person in charge of Qianwen, on the afternoon of March 5th, Omar Sanseviero, the relevant person in charge of Google DeepMind development team, called out to the Qianwen team on social media: "If you want to find a new place to build excellent models and contribute to the open model ecosystem, please contact us! There are many exciting things on our development roadmap, and there is still much work to be done in the future." It is understood that Omar Sanseviero is a very active and well-known figure in the field of AI open source and developer experience, currently serving as the head of developer experience at Google DeepMind. He leads a global team responsible for enhancing the developer experience of Google DeepMind's AI products, mainly involving Gemini API, Gemma (open source model family), AI Studio, and other generative AI tools (such as Veo). On the morning of March 5th, Alibaba CEO Wu Yongming responded to Lin Junyang's resignation in an internal email. The email stated that the company has decided to approve Lin Junyang's resignation and thanked him for his contributions in the past. Zhou Jingren will continue to lead the Tongyi Lab to advance the subsequent work. Meanwhile, the company will establish a basic model support group to continue to adhere to the open model strategy.
