Google DeepMind

Google's unified AI lab; maker of Gemini

Google DeepMind is the merged research org (DeepMind + Google Brain) building the Gemini family, the only frontier lab that is fully vertically integrated on its own TPU accelerators rather than Nvidia GPUs. It trains and serves on Google Cloud TPUs (Trillium/Ironwood generations) and ships Gemini across Search, Workspace, and Android. In 2025-2026 it pushed multimodal, long-context, and agentic Gemini variants and AlphaFold/AlphaProof-style science work.
