Google CEO Sundar Pichai has recently announced that Google Brain and DeepMind teams will join forces and form Google DeepMind. This move is seen as a response to the growing competition from the AI chatbot ChatGPT. DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis will be the head of Google DeepMind and will focus on developing AI products. Jeff Dean, the former Senior Vice President of Google Research and Health will serve as chief scientist of Google DeepMind and lead the future of Google AI research.
Google DeepMind will be in charge of boosting the company’s AI efforts. Additionally, it is tasked with addressing some of the most difficult scientific and engineering challenges in AI. They will put the focus on achieving the most impact and work with greater speed, collaboration and execution. This move is believed to accelerate Google’s progress in the AI industry.
Google has been researching Artificial Intelligence for years, and has developed several AI-driven services, such as AlphaGo, Transformers and word2vec. Other tech giants and companies such as X.AI, Alibaba and Microsoft have also jumped on the AI bandwagon. While X.AI has developed the TruthGPT, Microsoft have integrated ChatGPT into their Bing search engine. Samsung has even considered switching their default search engine to Bing in order to catch up with the competition. In order to stay ahead of competitors, Google is joining forces and launching Google DeepMind.
DeepMind is a British Artificial Intelligence company which Google acquired in 2014. The company is pioneering the development of general artificial intelligence and applying it to real-world problems. DeepMind has made breakthroughs in AI by developing machine learning algorithms to simulate biological neurons and solve complex problems.
