Microsoft’s artificial intelligence group has been growing under Mustafa Suleyman, a co-founder of the DeepMind research lab Google acquired years ago.

Chain-of-thought monitorability could improve generative AI safety by assessing how models come to their conclusions and spotting the "intent to misbehave.”

Late last year, Dominic King and Christopher Kelly were poached by Suleyman from DeepMind to run a new AI health unit that has already developed an AI medical system that it says is four times more successful than human doctors at diagnosing complex ailments.

Meta Platforms has hired three more artificial intelligence researchers from Google DeepMind as Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg continues his aggressive efforts to recover from stumbles earlier this year with an unprecedented AI recruiting push.

Researchers are urging developers to prioritize research into “chain-of-thought” processes, which provide a window into how AI systems make decisions.

Elon Musk lauded Google Gemini for achieving "gold medal" status at the International Mathematical Olympiad, solving five of six problems. Google DeepMind's AI made history as the first machine to reach this level.

The IMO 2025 is regarded as one of the toughest competitions for high schoolers worldwide to prove their mettle with numbers and equations. The gold medal scoring by the AI models marks a significant breakthrough for the AI technology, and a marker of how it’s redefining its limits daily.

CASP, the protein structure prediction contest that launched DeepMind’s Alphafold to international fame and a Nobel Prize, has secured temporary funding to continue operations. The organization’s current funding — from the National Institutes of Health — is set to run out in early August.
