    The reality with releases like this is that I'm 90% sure most Google bigwigs have never heard of it, and it's misleading to label it as "Google's" in the title.

    Yes, it was developed by Google employees, that does not imply it has the full backing of Google, or Deepmind, or GCP. Notably, the website doesn't seem to claim this either.

      the repo description <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;google&#x2F;ax" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;google&#x2F;ax is &quot;Google&#x27;s open agentic orchestrator&quot;

        for comparison&#x2F;contrast, another very related Google project (one employee) on one of their github orgs that comes with the following disclaimer

        &gt; This is not an officially supported Google product. This project is not eligible for the Google Open Source Software Vulnerability Rewards Program.

          it’s true. Google rarely has just one of anything
