“And by the way, the entire graph cast model runs in one minute. So you basically input current weather data, and you input weather data from six hours ago, and in a minute, you get all the forecasts.”

“Published a paper in the journal Science this week introducing GraphCast, which is actually a publicly available model that does weather forecasting using machine learned models. It's a thirty seven million parameter model.”

“When I walk into the GDM building, you know, some of our earliest engineers are all sitting there. Working together. People come in five days a week at a minimum, right?”

“We saw him at the dinner at the White House yesterday, and he said he's very involved in Google DeepMind again.”

“Over the last two years the model efficiencies are like 10 X, you know, even a hundred X better for the same performance.”

“So AlphaFold itself is a hybrid model where you have the learning component, this probabilistic component you're talking about, which is, you know, based on neural networks and transformers and things, and that's learning from the data you give it you know, an…”

“Actually we, for the moment, and I think probably for the next five years or so, we're building what maybe you could call hybrid models.”

“There's around 5000 people in, in, in my org, in, in Google DeepMind, and, you know, it's predominantly, I guess, 80% plus engineers and PhD researchers.”

“No, I mean, we're not seeing that internally, and we're still seeing a huge rate of progress.”

“It was trained off a video and some synthetic data from game engines.”

“People like the director, Darren Aronofsky, who's a good friend of mine, an amazing director. And he's been making, and his team is making films using VO and some of our other tools.”

“It's not perfect yet, but it can generate a consistent minute or two of interaction as you as the user in many, many different worlds.”

“That's certainly one strategy we're pursuing is a kind of Android play, if you like, a crossroad as a kind of robotics, almost an OS layer, cross robotics. But there's also some quite interesting things about vertically integrating our latest models with speci…”
