Varun Mohans exit from Windsurf to Google DeepMind disrupts a potential sale and receives backlash from industry leaders and the public.

Chain-of-thought monitorability could improve generative AI safety by assessing how models come to their conclusions and spotting the "intent to misbehave.”

Microsoft has hired around two dozen engineers from Google DeepMind to strengthen its AI team and accelerate Copilot development, intensifying the talent war among tech giants.

Microsoft has recently recruited approximately two dozen employees from Google's DeepMind AI research lab, bolstering its Copilot project.

Microsoft’s artificial intelligence group has been growing under Mustafa Suleyman, a co-founder of the DeepMind research lab Google acquired years ago.

AI models from OpenAI and Google DeepMind achieved gold-medal scores in the 2025 International Math Olympiad (IMO), one of the world’s

Late last year, Dominic King and Christopher Kelly were poached by Suleyman from DeepMind to run a new AI health unit that has already developed an AI medical system that it says is four times more successful than human doctors at diagnosing complex ailments.

Researchers are urging developers to prioritize research into “chain-of-thought” processes, which provide a window into how AI systems make decisions.
