This post explores how developers can leverage Gemini 2.5 to build sophisticated robotics applications, focusing on semantic scene understanding, spatial reasoning with code generation, and interactive robotics applications using the Live API. It also highlights safety measures and current applications by trusted testers.
DeepMind is prioritizing readiness, proactive risk assessment, and collaboration with the wider AI community as they explore the frontiers of AGI, focusing on mitigating risks like misuse and misalignment.
DeepMind researchers propose a new 'streams' approach to AI development, focusing on experiential learning and autonomous interaction with the world, moving beyond the limitations of current large language models and potentially surpassing human intelligence.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin has called for the company to 'turbocharge' its efforts in the race to achieve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), citing increased competition and the need for more efficient use of AI in coding and productivity.

Google DeepMind introduced PaliGemma 2, a new family of Vision-Language Models with parameter sizes ranging from 3 billion to 28 billion, designed to address challenges in generalizing across different tasks and adapting to various input data types, including diverse image resolutions.
DeepMind's Gemma Scope provides researchers with tools to better understand how Gemma 2 language models work through a collection of sparse autoencoders. This helps in understanding the inner workings of these models and addressing concerns like hallucinations and potential manipulation.
