Google’s former Andys—Conrad and Harrison—reunited at VC firm S32, talk AI
==========

Dr. Andy Conrad and Andy Harrison, both former employees of Google, have reunited at VC firm S32. Conrad, known for starting Alphabet's life sciences organization Verily, joined S32 because Verily had grown to a level that required a different type of intention. Harrison, the CEO and general partner of S32, recruited Conrad to the firm. The two have a distinct point of view on AI due to their Google background. They believe AI is currently in the product phase and hope for a future phase of scale and impact. S32's portfolio includes AI-focused companies such as Cohere, Scale AI, Inworld AI, and Phaidra. Conrad and Harrison emphasize the importance of bringing the right humans together to advance AI. They believe that an increasingly AI-ified world will still require human expertise and collaboration. S32 is optimistic about the potential of AI and believes that with the right tools, a combination of wisdom, humility, and technical know-how, AI can be successful.
