Exploring institutions for global AI governance

New white paper investigates models and functions of international institutions that could help manage opportunities and mitigate risks of advanced AI. Growing awareness of the global impact of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) has inspired public discussions about the need for…

RoboCat: A self-improving robotic agent

Robots are quickly becoming part of our everyday lives, but they’re often only programmed to perform specific tasks well. While harnessing recent advances in AI could lead to robots that could help in many more ways, progress in building general-purpose…

AlphaDev discovers faster sorting algorithms

In our paper published today in Nature, we introduce AlphaDev, an artificial intelligence (AI) system that uses reinforcement learning to discover enhanced computer science algorithms – surpassing those honed by scientists and engineers over decades. Read More

Optimising computer systems with more generalised AI tools

Based on reinforcement learning, our AI models AlphaZero and MuZero have achieved superhuman performance winning games. Now, they’re expanding their capabilities to help optimise resources in data centres and advance video compression – and most recently, our specialised version of…

An early warning system for novel AI risks

AI researchers already use a range of evaluation benchmarks to identify unwanted behaviours in AI systems, such as AI systems making misleading statements, biased decisions, or repeating copyrighted content. Now, as the AI community builds and deploys increasingly powerful AI,…

DeepMind’s latest research at ICLR 2023

Next week marks the start of the 11th International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), taking place 1-5 May in Kigali, Rwanda. This will be the first major artificial intelligence (AI) conference to be hosted in Africa and the first in-person…

How can we build human values into AI?

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more powerful and more deeply integrated into our lives, the questions of how it is used and deployed are all the more important. What values guide AI? Whose values are they? And how are they…

Announcing Google DeepMind

DeepMind and the Brain team from Google Research will join forces to accelerate progress towards a world in which AI helps solve the biggest challenges facing humanity. Read More

AI for the board game Diplomacy

Successful communication and cooperation have been crucial for helping societies advance throughout history. The closed environments of board games can serve as a sandbox for modelling and investigating interaction and communication – and we can learn a lot from playing…
