"Bret and I have known each other since our early days at Google, and I have always admired his keen product sense and entrepreneurial spirit, his technical chops, and, above all, his character and integrity," he said.
"We share an obsession with recent advances in AI, and we're excited to build a new company to apply AI to solve some of the most important problems in business."
He further mentioned that until his departure next month, he will be focusing on transitioning his teams and projects, and wrapping things up properly at Google.
