The moment you knew they were serious was when they pulled Jeff Dean in and paired him with Demis. That was, I imagine, a very expensive move to make internally, (rumors are Dean had wanted to retire / move on), and Demis had nearly unilateral control of his corner of the AI universe at Google for roughly a decade. We're seeing the results of that move right now.
