Also, they chose to call it Gopher 
are you kidding me?

Could be a call back to the early days? Gopher, Veronica, Archie, Lynx browser… those were the days!

This is the issue with these advertisements (I mean papers). It does look good on paper, but where is the code or API as OpenAI has done? Until then, it is ether. I think some companies, like Google, will likely wrap the functionality into their existing product line (e.g. Home Assistant, Google Office).
