  • “So they had the whole piece on MUM, which is going to be another thing that's kind of joining in with the BERT algorithm and the update…. So MUM stands for Multitask Unified Model.”

  • “Airbnbs biggest growth was 9%. But again, it's that consistent progression that we're seeing. They had their peak back in July of 2019, pretty substantial kind of fall off, but I'd say overall, they're kind of gaining back some traction...”
