It's interesting that he's returned to work on Gemini and that it has been central to Google's rejuvenation in that time. I am curious how much of this marries up with traditional founder driven companies being successful (Jobs returning to Apple, Jensen Huang, etc) compared to being adrift without their original founders. How much was he driving as part of Gemini? Or was he just chipping in?
This was my thesis as well but only insiders can confirm how much of it is true
