From an organizational standpoint, it doesn’t sound unreasonable to me.

The group will be split into four smaller groups, according to a New York Times report. One group will focus on AI research, another one on infrastructure and hardware projects, one on AI products, and another one on building out AI superintelligence, a hypothetical AI system that could outperform human intelligence on any and all scales.

I mean, they have different skillsets, a fair bit of that is going to be on decoupled timelines, they have different levels of risk, and the technical expertise is going to differ. One succeeding or failing isn’t tightly coupled to another doing so. Sure, they all relate to one thing or another to something that has been called “AI”, but that’s a pretty broad group.
