COMPETITIVE

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

This article contains a transcript of an interview with Dennis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind. Google DeepMind is the result of an internal merger between DeepMind and Google's previous internal AI team called Google Brain. DeepMind was purchased in 2014 and the merger was completed earlier this year. The two divisions were not focused on the same things when they were merged, resulting in a culture clash. The interview covers the merger and the dramas around it as well as AI risk and artificial general intelligence.
