Deepmind is a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts, and more, working together to advance the state of the art in AI. They´re always been fascinated by human intelligence – it shaped the modern world we live in today. Intelligence allows us to learn, imagine, cooperate, create, communicate, and so much more. By better understanding different aspects of intelligence, they can use this knowledge as inspiration to build novel computer systems that learn to find solutions to difficult problems on their own.
