One thing I didn’t see mentioned is how feasible this really is. For a developer, if you have access to the code base and good documentation, you can get really far. For stuff that you can’t get from documentation, and would traditionally turn to the internet for, I assume Google is going to solve with an AI product. If it’s private for internal use and trained on appropriate data, they can provide the functionality of searching for coding questions without needing the internet. They’re able to use internal web tools to presumably contact coworkers, so this combination of coworkers, documentation, and AI is entirely sufficient.
