At least they are starting the conversation. I'd be much more comfortable with principles of design and implementation in addition to outcomes. For example, transparency is essential. Also:

5. Incorporate privacy design principles.

We will incorporate our privacy principles in the development and use of our AI technologies. We will give opportunity for notice and consent, encourage architectures with privacy safeguards, and provide appropriate transparency and control over the use of data.

Why not "give people control over their privacy and over their information"? That's a commitment to an outcome. "Incorporate ... principles", "give opportunity", "encourage", and "appropriate transparency and control" are not commitments. Google seems to be hedging on privacy.



they're only starting it because of the backlash from employees internally and more importantly the external backlash.
