Google\u2019s AI-driven approach has led to the company announcing an ambitious new development. This latest project, Google DeepMind, sees the company merging two of its leading AI teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a statement released by Google\u2019s CEO<\/a> Sundar Pichai, the company has introduced this new team in an effort to fast-forward Google\u2019s AI research and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis group, called Google DeepMind, will bring together two leading research groups in the AI field: the Brain team from Google Research, and DeepMind\u201d,<\/em> said Sundar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google Brain was a research division under the Google AI umbrella, focusing on deep learning and artificial intelligence. The team was responsible for the development and launch of TensorFlow, an open-source software library. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other part of the merger, Deepmind Technologies, was a UK-based research laboratory. Google acquired the company in 2014 and it worked as an independent Alphabet research center until 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why The Sudden Merger?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This announcement comes in the wake of some major developments in AI. OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Amazon\u2019s Bedrock have stirred great excitement and intrigue in people. And Google wants to stamp its mark on this race by combining its two most accomplished AI research teams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 13, Google De<\/a>e<\/a>pMind<\/a> announced the latest AI agent \"SIMA\" (Scalable Instructable Multiworld Agent) which can actively play games with you while following your commands.

Google\u2019s AI-driven approach has led to the company announcing an ambitious new development. This latest project, Google DeepMind, sees the company merging two of its leading AI teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a statement released by Google\u2019s CEO<\/a> Sundar Pichai, the company has introduced this new team in an effort to fast-forward Google\u2019s AI research and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis group, called Google DeepMind, will bring together two leading research groups in the AI field: the Brain team from Google Research, and DeepMind\u201d,<\/em> said Sundar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google Brain was a research division under the Google AI umbrella, focusing on deep learning and artificial intelligence. The team was responsible for the development and launch of TensorFlow, an open-source software library. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other part of the merger, Deepmind Technologies, was a UK-based research laboratory. Google acquired the company in 2014 and it worked as an independent Alphabet research center until 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why The Sudden Merger?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This announcement comes in the wake of some major developments in AI. OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Amazon\u2019s Bedrock have stirred great excitement and intrigue in people. And Google wants to stamp its mark on this race by combining its two most accomplished AI research teams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientists have been using AI to accurately predict weather phenomena for many years. These models traditionally generated a single forecast based on previous weather patterns. Additionally, these forecasts were reliable for up to a week at most. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google\u2019s new GenCast uses a diffusion model for probabilistic ensemble forecasts. Instead of a single, deterministic forecast, this new model offers an ensemble of 50 or more predictions.

In the white paper, DeepMind tested its GenCast system against EPS in predicting global wind speed, temperature, and extreme weather events. According to DeepMind, GenCast outperformed EPS in 99.7% of the tests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
