Thread regarding IBM layoffs

How much did we pay for this? Part 2

Not OP of orginal post but that post maybe me realize:

IMAPS Corporation Award to IBM?

How? That department was completely destroyed and disbanded by the leadership of their last management chain. Their buffoonery bungled, fumbled, and mismanaged, driving the department straight into the ground by people who clearly had no idea what they were doing. In fact the only thing those guys were good at was destroying and ending other projects and programs. How can IBM win this when it literally no longer exists internally at IBM. How exactly does a team that's been wiped off the org chart win an award for work it can no longer even claim credit for?

There are certainly teams that continue to pursue theoretical work in this area, but you are correct that the core team that historically drove this research has been effectively dismantled. You are also correct about this award—it ultimately comes down to money and, more importantly, who wields the financial and institutional power behind it.
