Google reshuffles its AI leadership: Demis Hassabis moves to chief scientist, Jeff Dean departs
The man who built DeepMind steps back from day-to-day operations to focus on drug discovery and big-picture AI strategy, while a longtime Google engineer leaves to start a new science-focused AI company.

Four of Google's Most Celebrated AI Scientists Are Leaving to Build a Machine That Does Science Itself
Jeff Dean, the engineer behind Google's search infrastructure and its Gemini AI model, is co-founding Discovery Loop, a startup whose goal is to run thousands of automated experiments and out-invent the world's largest research labs.

Google's July drop: a new robotics brain, three faster Gemini models, and an AI code optimiser
Gemini Robotics ER 2 promises machines that can reason about the physical world, while three new Flash models chase cheaper, quicker AI agents.

This London startup wants factory workers to train robots the same way they would train a new hire
Reimagine Robotics says its system cuts the time to teach a robot a new task from a full day down to ten minutes, and it needs no specialist programmers to do it.

Google's Gemini Robotics 2 wants to build a robot that can do anything you ask
A new family of AI models from Google DeepMind pushes physical robots closer to general-purpose helpers, with better dexterity, multi-robot teamwork, and one model developers can try right now.
