Google and DeepMind just announced that they will unite Google Brain and Deepmind into Google DeepMind. This is a good step for both sites since Deepmind really needs the computing power of Google to make further progress on AGI and Google needs the Manpower and knowledge of the Deepmind team to quickly catch up to OpenAi and Microsoft. This partnership could lead to a real rival on the way to AGI for OpenAI. I personally always liked that DeepMind had a different approach to AGI and I hope they will continue to push different ideas other than language models.
