DeepMind and the Brain team from Google Research are joining forces to create a new unit called Google DeepMind.
This move will accelerate the progress of AI development and enable the creation of more capable AI systems that can be used safely and responsibly. The combination of talents and efforts will enable the team to work towards a world where AI can help solve some of the biggest challenges facing humanity. With a focus on collaboration and execution, the team hopes to simplify the decision-making process and achieve the biggest impact possible.
The creation of Google DeepMind is a significant milestone for AI research and technology, claim experts. The potential for AI and AGI to drive one of the greatest social, economic and scientific transformations in history is enormous. Through the collaboration of the DeepMind and Brain teams, the next generation of AI breakthroughs and products will be created, advancing science and transforming industries. The team is committed to building ever more capable and general AI in a responsible and safe way, which demands solving some of the most complex scientific and engineering challenges of our time.
The creation of Google DeepMind will enable the team to work even more closely together to achieve their goals. In addition, the team is creating a new Scientific Board for Google DeepMind to oversee research progress and direction. This will be led by Koray Kavukcuoglu and will have representatives from across the organization.
