You are hired for $2.7 Billion…

Sounds CRAZY right?

Now just imagine……

You're running a tech giant, and there's this super-smart AI guru who used to work for you. They left to start their own thing, and now they're the talk of Silicon Valley.

I know you would be like:

What if you get the opportunity to get them back?

That's kinda what's going on with Google and this guy Noam Shazeer.

Here's the lowdown:

• Shazeer used to be Google's AI golden boy
• He quit to start his own AI company, Character.AI (which is doing pretty darn well)
• Now there are rumors flying that Google wants him back... badly

Here's the million-dollar question (or should we say billion-dollar?): If you were Google, would you try to rehire this AI wizard?

The Pros:

• You get a certified genius back on your team
• It's a power move that says, "We're serious about AI, folks!"
• You keep that brain out of your competitors' hands

The Cons:

• It might cost you a fortune (we're talking potentially billions)
• What if he leaves again?
• Could ruffle some feathers in your current AI team

So, what would you do?
