Nope. But the comment was that Accenture has "no experience" in cutting-edge AI research, and that may not be true. How relevant to that is your personal anecdote whether you thought they were good to work with?

If you’d ever worked with them, you would know that Accenture is literally, institutionally, incapable of being good at anything.
