Google DeepMind Slows Down Release of Research Findings

According to seven current and former research scientists at Google DeepMind, the group led by Nobel laureate Sir Demis Hassabis has introduced stricter review procedures and more cumbersome formalities, making it more difficult to publish research reports on its AI work. Three former researchers said the group is least willing to share papers that reveal innovations that could be exploited by competitors, or those that have a negative impact on Google's own Gemini AI model compared with other companies. One of the changes in the company's publication policy is that there must be a six-month embargo period before publishing "strategic" papers related to generative AI. Former employees said the new process has curbed the release of commercially sensitive research to avoid the leakage of potential innovations. Publishing papers on generative AI is "almost impossible."
