Proposed merge of Google AI into Google

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
No consensus for a merge; conflicting views and stale discussion. Klbrain (talk) 15:53, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A division of Google. Article has little content, is more like a stub. We don't normally have separate articles on company divisions unless these divisions enjoy notability independent from the parent, which is obviously not the case here. — kashmīrī TALK 12:40, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Google AI is an integral division of Google, and will likely continue to grow in size and importance in the coming years, as the company continues to place greater emphasis on AI. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:18, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Irrespective of their size, I will argue that company divisions are inherently non-notable as, barring rare exceptions, they normally fail WP:INHERITORG. — kashmīrī TALK 14:16, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Google AI is likely going to expand in the future with the recent release of technology such as PaLM 2. For “future proofing” purposes, I argue leaving the article as-is is better. KnowledgeSeek23 (talk) 04:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support, but ideally wait. I'm viewing this as WP:TOOSOON, but it also may be "too soon to merge". InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 18:39, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Decent Support I believe that generally, having less pages on Wikipedia makes it less confusing for people, especially when they are stubs/start-class articles that would belong better in a section of another article. Maybe in the future, it will have a more significant impact, but for now, I believe that it should be merged. It's a branch of a company that is related enough to the main company to warrant a merge.

  • Support for now, it can always be split into its own article in the future. Persent101 (talk) 02:45, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • On current content I lean towards a merge without prejudice to expansion, but not sure where it would be merged to. There is no individual coverage of divisions here. CMD (talk) 04:46, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Listen, folks. A merge doesn't make sense. Even if the article has few sources, this is clearly a {{Sources exist}} situation. And as Chipmunkdavis noted, where would be a good merge target? The term "Google AI" isn't even mentioned on this article. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. No need for a separate stub specifically for Google's ai r&d wing. Cfls (talk) 19:15, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Google Brain, Google_DeepMind ( both already merged together by google ) can be combined into Google AI - But Google AI should be standalone should not be combined into GoogleGsgdd (talk) 20:55, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    See my Talk:Google_AI#Proposed_merge_of_Google_DeepMind_and_Google_Brain_into_Google_Ai Gsgdd (talk) 21:26, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This comment (and suggestion) makes no sense. To copy what I replied on the other page: Huh? Google DeepMind and Google Brain did not "merge to create Google AI". DeepMind and Google Brain merged to create Google DeepMind. To accommodate this change, the page DeepMind was moved to Google DeepMind, and the wording on Google Brain was tweaked. In any case, it would be unreasonable to merge the substantial content of Google Brain into the very large Google DeepMind. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:38, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
On a procedural note, one of the templates was removed with this edit on the 11th December, functionally ending the proposal before a formal merge close; I've now removed the other template, but of course anyone is free to start a new proposal - or just update the Google AI page with more on Gemini ...
