  1. 0:14 Our next speaker is VP of Research at Google DeepMind.
  2. 0:19 Please join me in welcoming to the stage Raya Hasdel.
  3. 0:34 Hello, everyone.
  4. 0:35 Wonderful.
  5. 0:37 What a lovely full room and good smiles.
  6. 0:39 I heard the dig on Google there at the end.
  7. 0:42 I did catch that.
  8. 0:45 So my name is Raya Hadsell.
  9. 0:47 I've been a part of DeepMind for the last almost 13 years.
  10. 0:54 And I'm very happy to have AI Engineer come here to London.
  11. 0:58 I'm also very proud this year to be
  12. 1:02 a UK AI ambassador, so I help the government, academia, industry sort of bridge those gaps.
  13. 1:11 And yes, I'm American by birth, but I've been here for long enough that I can count myself among the proud Brits as well.
  14. 1:19 So I'm going to talk a little bit about frontier AI and the future of intelligence.
  15. 1:26 to start a little bit of a longer introduction to who I am.
  16. 1:30 It's good to be as old as I am.
  17. 1:33 You get to look at this by the decades.
  18. 1:35 So in the 90s, I did my undergraduate degree in philosophy of religion.
  19. 1:40 I was definitely not a computer scientist yet, but I really enjoyed it, before you ask.
  20. 1:51 Yes, I learned a lot, and I'm glad that I did it, and no, it hasn't been very useful since.
  21. 1:57 In the 2000s, I did a bit of a pivot, moved into computer science after some good advice from those close to me, and spent my PhD years in New York City working on convolutional networks, neural networks for robots with Yann LeCun, which is a lot of fun.
  22. 2:20 I then, in the 2010s, made the decision to join a small group of curious, scrappy individuals working at DeepMind.
  23. 2:32 It's a group of about 30, 40 people at the time.
  24. 2:36 And we spent the rest of that decade working on things like Atari video games, Go, StarCraft, and some robotics.
  25. 2:47 A lot of fun.
  26. 2:49 Now I am a VP within DeepMind.
  27. 2:54 I help run a group of about 1,200 scientists and engineers across 10 labs.
  28. 3:04 And we're working on a lot of different things.
  29. 3:07 I'll tell you about three of those.
  30. 3:11 So first, frontier AI is an area where we really are trying to make sure that we are staying in the front.
  31. 3:21 So we're thinking about what are the next architectures that we're going to use for Gemini?
  32. 3:27 What are the next problems that only AI can really address?
  33. 3:32 And how are we going to build the future of intelligence?
  34. 3:37 And that's thinking not just about artificial intelligence, but it's create the future of human intelligence as well, and even robotics intelligence as well.
  35. 3:47 We are all on this journey together, and I think that it's important to think about how humans change as well as the technology.
  36. 3:57 Our approach, we look for root nodes.
  37. 3:59 We're not gonna waste time on the leaves.
  38. 4:01 We're gonna really find for a big problem space that hasn't been solved, how deep can we go?
  39. 4:08 Find the deepest problems and solve those in order to then enable a lot of downstream impact.
  40. 4:18 We partner really with the world.
  41. 4:20 I really think about it very broadly and think about who are the partners that can help us find those root nodes and solve those problems and also bring it to the leaf nodes and solving problems that are worth solving.
  42. 4:34 The motto or the mission of DeepMind is to build AI responsibly for the benefit of humanity.
  43. 4:41 So I really take that seriously.
  44. 4:43 We want to solve problems that are worth solving.
  45. 4:48 All right, so we work in a lot of different areas within Frontier AI.
  46. 4:54 In DeepMind, these are sort of some of the different categories.
  47. 4:58 I'm not going to tell you about all of them, so you can just maybe keep those a mystery.
  48. 5:04 But I'll just pick out a couple.
  49. 5:05 So first, in advanced models, I actually wanted to bring up an embeddings model.
  50. 5:13 So the theme of this talk overall is things that are not directly language models.

Chapters

  1. 0:00 Introduction
  2. 5:05 Advanced Embedding Models: Raia discusses the importance of embedding models for fast retrieval and recognition, similar to how the human brain uses 'Jennifer Aniston cells' to identify concepts across modalities. She highlights Gemini Embeddings 2, a fully omnimodal model that processes text, video, and audio into unified semantic vectors.
  3. 9:53 AI for Weather Forecasting: The team has developed revolutionary models for atmospheric prediction, moving away from traditional physics simulations. Notable breakthroughs include
  4. 11:00 GraphCast: A spherical graph neural network that provides accurate 15-day weather forecasts.
  5. 12:47 GenCast: A probabilistic model that offers higher efficiency and accuracy (97% of the time compared to gold-standard benchmarks).
  6. 13:51 FGN: A functional generative network that directly predicts cyclone behavior, which is currently being utilized by the US National Hurricane Center.
  7. 14:35 World Models: Hadsell introduces Genie, a project focused on creating interactive, real-time environments. Starting from Genie 1 (2D platformers) and progressing to Genie 3, these models allow users to create and interact with high-quality, 3D photorealistic worlds. These environments demonstrate capabilities like memory, consistency, and the ability to be dynamically prompted by the user to change the surroundings in real-time.
