DeepMind launches institute to study AGI's impact on humanity
The DeepMind Institute
DeepMind has launched the DeepMind Institute, a new interdisciplinary effort to understand the profound implications of artificial general intelligence. Led by Shane Legg, James Manyika, and Demis Hassabis, the institute's first essays cover reasoning transparency, economic policy for AGI, principles for a new utopianism, and a framework for frontier AI. The institute aims to foster bold thinking on AGI from the lab that pioneered the field.
As we near AGI, we urgently need interdisciplinary thinking to better understand its profound implications for humanity.
