Why Top Talent is Leaving Google DeepMind

Many top researchers are frustrated with Google's heavy bureaucracy. They feel held back by internal rules that make it difficult to get their work done quickly. This slow environment is driving talent to leave for competitors.
There is also a major issue with access to hardware. DeepMind employees are struggling to get enough TPU chips for their projects. Meanwhile, Google sells those same chips to outside companies like Anthropic. This conflict makes staff feel like the company prioritizes profit over its own research team.
Demis Hassabis has also stepped back from daily management duties. He prefers focusing on pure science rather than running a large company department. This shift in leadership leaves many questions about the future direction of the team.
