Company?

[edit]

Is it really a "company", or was it really started as one? Most of the work they do on WaveNet is open source, and their website reads more like they're a non-profit research institute. I hardly know of any company whose research department is as fully transparent and accessible to the public and their results and working materials all published as open source. --2003:EF:13C6:FE22:9877:F5AE:80F4:F7F6 (talk) 11:47, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request for removal

[edit]

Hi,

I'd like to request that the following be removed from the History section:

In December 2019, co-founder Suleyman announced he would be leaving DeepMind to join Google, working in a policy role.[1]In 2021, the Wall Street Journal revealed that Suleyman had been placed on leave at DeepMind in 2019, following an investigation into employees' allegations that he had bullied them.[2] The company hired an external lawyer to investigate allegations that Suleyman had bullied employees, and he was placed on a leave of absence, before leaving to join Google. An email sent to staff after the story broke, published by Business Insider, said Suleyman's "management style fell short" of expected standards.[3] Business Insider also published further details of historical allegations of bullying against Suleyman, including claims that he boasted about "crushing people", "had a habit of flying off the handle out of nowhere", and demanded employees carry out tasks unrelated to their jobs.[4]

This information is already included in the article focused on Mustafa Suleyman, and is both redundant and irrelevant for inclusion in the DeepMind article, which focuses on the history and information surrounding the company itself.

Bringing this to the attention of Andrevan, who reviewed the edit requests at Talk:Mustafa Suleyman and is therefore familiar with the subject and context.

Thanks for your time, MforSuleyman (talk) 13:47, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Divison of a division?

[edit]

In the article, GOogle Brain is described as a division of Google AI. But Google AI is itself a division (see Google AI)... Am I missing something? 103.114.126.34 (talk) 08:21, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. Google Brain was a division of Google AI, which was a division of Google LLC, which is a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:11, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Deepmind Technologies Limited or Google Deepmind? (2024)

[edit]

I changed the name in the first line to Google Deepmind because that is what is written on the division's website and also that is the title of the article, but User:Ptrnext changed it back to Deepmind Technologies Limited, leaving this comment : "restore legal name" and adding this hidden comment in the source : "full legal name per MOS:FIRSCORP". I don't see anything called MOS:FIRSCORP. And why do we have to use the full legal name (if it indeed is the legal name) only instead of the tradename Google Deepmind, which is also the article title? Or maybe we can keep both, assuming there is a legal name? - Zaheen (talk) 18:36, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I meant to write MOS:FIRSTCORP, which requires us to begin company pages with its full legal name. Yes, we can keep both the legal and trade names, like in SpaceX, but usually skip them for the obvious ones (Apple Inc. [legal name] / Apple [trade name]). This edit seems to have removed the citation that was added by another user to validate the legal name. Ptrnext (talk) 19:23, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ptrnext, thanks for the explanation. I have since looked into it and it is indeed legally registered in the UK under that legal name. --Zaheen (talk) 19:56, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
