Google DeepMind is the artificial intelligence research and engineering division of Alphabet, formed in 2023 by merging the London laboratory founded in 2010 with the Google Brain team. It builds frontier foundation models such as the Gemini family, generative media systems including Veo and Imagen, and scientific tools like AlphaFold, whose protein structure predictions earned a share of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The unit pairs long-horizon research on reinforcement learning and general intelligence with product delivery across Google Search, Workspace, Android and Google Cloud.
