Our take

Google DeepMind combines the talents of two leading AI labs, Google Brain and DeepMind. Over the past decade, they have made major breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, which have helped shape the AI industry today.

DeepMind first gained attention with its deep reinforcement learning techniques, especially with the program DQN, which learned to play 49 Atari games just by watching the screen. Its landmark achievement came with AlphaGo, the first AI to beat a world champion in the complex game of Go. Following this success, it tackled even tougher challenges, such as creating AlphaStar, which defeated professional players in StarCraft II, and AlphaFold, which predicts protein structures to advance medical research.

Now operating as Google DeepMind, the organisation uses its computing resources to solve important scientific and engineering problems. Focused on developing AI responsibly, ensuring that its groundbreaking products benefit everyone, With ongoing innovations in areas like generative models and robotics, Google DeepMind is set to lead the next wave of AI advancements while addressing the ethical challenges that come with these technologies.
