What's interesting is the balance between ambition and practicality. The vision is AGI, world models, and scientific discovery at unprecedented scale, but many of the most tangible announcements focus on solving real problems today, from research acceleration and code security to content authenticity and multimodal workflows. The bigger theme is that world understanding and agentic capabilities are starting to converge. As AI gets better at understanding context, reasoning across modalities, and taking action, the distinction between assistant, tool, and collaborator continues to blur.

Absolutely love the new Gemini UI redesign. I also know I've created what 99% of the world don't know is possible with tools like Gemini. See the fully architected AI-nativesystems @

As Demis Hassabis points out, breakthroughs in world understanding and agentic systems could redefine how humans interact with technology and tackle complex challenges in the years ahead. 🌍🚀

The issue isn’t what AI can do. The issue is that governance keeps reacting instead of governing. If the structures responsible for oversight don’t set the terms, the terms get set by default.

Honestly the SynthID news is the one I'd underline twice, Demis. Watermarking is useless if it's only one lab doing it, getting OpenAI, Kakao and ElevenLabs to actually adopt the same standard is the harder political win. PS — would love to connect.

Tunde Onakoya will be in London this June and it would be amazing to see you both discuss and deliberate how to bridge the gap in the innovative world with the use of chess and technology.

The $2.1B raise reflects what we're seeing in secondaries. Isomorphic is one of the most requested names from sophisticated buyers. Capital is voting early on the drug discovery thesis.

👏 Incredible work.

I am developing an Ai Agent for CAD. My AI agent currently runs succesfully on freecad, I am posting videos on my LinkedIn from now on presenting the demo. It would be great if you can guide me to get fundings.

Demis Hassabis , thank you 😊 A tribute: Demis Hassabis — AI Biographical Poetry in Superhero Art #poetry #history #deepmind

Demis, thank you for the inspiring update — the progress with Gemini models, Omni capabilities, CodeMender, and the broader push toward AGI is truly remarkable. Standing at the foothills of the singularity is an exciting place to be. That said, one area that could dramatically amplify AI’s positive impact: unleashing more targeted initiatives for small businesses. SMBs drive the majority of job creation and economic dynamism, yet many lack the resources to access or develop frontier AI tools. Would Google/DeepMind consider dedicated programs — such as discounted or reserved compute resources, simplified AI development kits tailored for small teams, or open initiatives to help smaller companies build and deploy their own AI solutions? Broadening access this way would not only foster widespread innovation but also create a stronger foundation to sustain long-term enterprise AI growth. Excited to see how the ecosystem evolves.

What strikes me most isn't the pace of technological progress, it's the pace at which leadership capability needs to evolve alongside it. Building AGI may be the defining technical challenge of our era. Building organisations capable of deploying it responsibly, with the right leaders, culture and judgment at every level, may prove equally demanding. The bottleneck won't be the technology. It rarely is. The real challenge will be ensuring human judgment evolves as quickly as machine capability. Fascinating perspective, Demis.

Adoption tends to accelerate when the technology solves a specific decision or productivity problem.

BOOM. I’m taking a shot and reaching out. Why? Because some of the best opportunities start with one conversation. My name is Jacob Paul Fry, Founder and CEO of Out Of Place Experience LLC, and we’re building something that combines television, adventure, community impact, environmental responsibility, technology, and human connection into one growing ecosystem. We’re producing our flagship series OUT OF PLACE, developing OOPXP.TV, building the OOP Movement, and creating a Trash Tracking platform focused on helping communities clean up the places we call home. Our motto is simple: Leave No Trace of Waste. Or as I occasionally say: “If you see trash out of place... OOPS, pick it up.” We’re actively building partnerships with sponsors, investors, creators, businesses, nonprofits, and leaders who believe positive action still matters. I don’t know where this connection may lead. Maybe a conversation. Maybe a partnership. Maybe a friendship. But opportunities rarely happen when people don’t introduce themselves. So here I am. I’d be honored to connect and learn more about you and your journey. Have an incredible day. — Jacob Paul Fry Founder & CEO Out Of Place Experience LLC Perseverance. Personality. Positivity.

Incredible progress, especially on agentic systems. Building production GenAI platforms in regulated environments taught me that capability is only half the problem. The harder challenge is governance around what agents actually do: authorization, grounding, audit trails, and the ability to intervene mid-execution. The SynthID adoption is also quietly the most important announcement here. Provenance becoming a cross-industry standard before widespread harm occurs is genuinely rare in tech history. The foothills of the singularity is a striking framing, and what gives me confidence is that the people building at the frontier are treating safety as foundational, not an afterthought.

Mind-blowing pace! 🤯

@Demis Hassabis + Demis, sending you this post — would genuinely value your perspective. Link: No pitch, no agenda. Just a founder who believes dialogue beats countdowns. Ishtvan Moysa

Dr. Hassabis, You wrote that agents and world understanding will be crucial for achieving AGI. I wonder whether AGI research may be starting from the wrong end of the problem. Most approaches begin with cognition, language, and human behavior. My work starts with a simpler question: what is the minimal form of life capable of continuing itself in a changing environment? From this perspective, reason emerges as a mechanism for navigating reality in service of life's continuation, rather than as a property of cognition itself. This raises a question that I rarely see discussed: should intelligence be derived from human cognition, or from the minimal functional requirements of life? I explored this idea in the work below and would be interested in your thoughts.
