Citrini analyst Jukan reposted content on platform X stating that industry insiders say Google DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis previously planned to leave around the same time as another co-founder David Silver, but Google management worried this news might trigger a significant stock price drop, therefore hoping he would postpone his departure. Sources say that after Google announced relevant adjustments, the company's stock price indeed dropped, and eventually Hassabis was persuaded to transition to the DeepMind Chairman position to help the organization transition smoothly and create space to leave Google in a more appropriate way in the future. It is reported that as David Silver turns to founding Ineffable Intelligence and John Jumper joins Anthropic, DeepMind's core AI R&D strength is undergoing changes. Some insiders believe that the center truly driving AI model development at Google has now shifted more towards the US Bay Area, DeepMind's importance has declined somewhat, and Google's internal focus has shifted to the large language model Gemini to catch up with OpenAI and Anthropic. Hassabis's adjustment reflects long-standing strategic contradictions within Google: research personnel focus more on long-term scientific breakthroughs, while business teams focus more on AI products that can be commercialized quickly and drive revenue and stock price growth. The market predicts Hassabis may leave Google within a year and may start a new venture again.
