DeepMind’s Hassabis emerges as unifying voice for the AI industry

Demis Hassabis, co-founder and CEO of Google’s DeepMind, has emerged as a unifying voice in the AI industry by proposing a self-regulatory body modeled after the US’ Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. His message received support from Chamath Palihapitiya and competitors at Microsoft and OpenAI, contrasting with the reputational challenges faced by other AI leaders like Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Elon Musk, and Mark Zuckerberg.
