Google and Google DeepMind researchers launched the DeepMind Institute on Wednesday to advance the conversation around artificial general intelligence. The institute lists DeepMind co-founder Shane Legg, Google executive James Manyika, and Google DeepMind chair Demis Hassabis as directors, with Legg serving as managing editor.
The new institute aims to surface differing views between Google, Google DeepMind, and the broader global research community around AGI. “They will not always agree, and they will likely change their minds, as more data and information comes to light at the fast-moving frontier,” the announcement read.
