In a recent chat with a Gemini VP regarding hiring philosophy, one trait he emphasized: the combination of low ego and high competence. We are no longer in an era defined by individual papers or claims of ownership. Success today requires a 'last mile' mindset—a relentless focus on doing whatever work is necessary to deliver world-class models. A team member who pairs high contribution with low ego simplifies and energizes the entire organization. In this hyper-competitive frontier, the delta between contribution and ego has become a key metric for identifying the talent that actually moves the needle.
You would have to be either staggeringly incompetent —or monstrously shameless — to stand before the press, without blinking, and draw a moral equivalence between Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil depots, strategic bombers, ammunition depots, and military factories (which, by the way, rarely even result in casualties), and Russia’s missile attacks on Ukrainian residential buildings that repeatedly bury entire families under rubble in the dead of night.
We are living in an era of phenomenal shamelessness in official rhetoric — but future generations will look back on this time with deep shame.
What made Brexit so lethal for this country is that it revered everything that held us back - Eton, the class system, deference - and reviled everything that gave us a chance of ever adapting to the modern world, such as the EU, internationalism, exchanges of views and talent.

Language matters. I have made clear that the word ‘woman’ should not be removed from key women’s health pages.
