Google purchased the
British start-up DeepMind Technologies
– an artificial intelligence company – on 27 January 2014. The American tech
giant Google confirmed the deal in its London office. This deal represents
Google’s biggest ever single acquisition in Europe.
The acquisition of DeepMind would prove to be helpful for
Google in further developing its most recent Hummingbird search update. The
Hummingbird search update was created to make Google more human and searches
which can now understand context like a human brain.
The artificial intelligence company DeepMind Technologies
was founded by Demis Hassabis, neuroscientist and computer genius together with
Shane Legg and Mustafa Suleyman in London.
