  • Google DeepMind Pilots Cryptographic Double-Blind AI Evaluations to Prevent Benchmark Contamination

    Google DeepMind, in collaboration with the Singapore AI Safety Institute, OpenMined, AVERI, and MLCommons, has piloted a cryptographic framework for double-blind evaluations of proprietary frontier language models. The pilot, conducted on Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite, uses hardware-isolated confidential computing to ensure that model developers cannot see evaluation prompts while evaluators cannot inspect proprietary weights or inference code. The project addresses benchmark contamination and intellec

  • Google DeepMind Pilots Double-Blind AI Evaluations to Prevent Benchmark Contamination

    Google DeepMind, alongside the Singapore AI Safety Institute, OpenMined, AVERI, and MLCommons, has launched a pilot demonstrating double-blind evaluations for proprietary frontier artificial intelligence models. The initiative evaluates Gemini Flash Lite inside hardware-isolated secure enclaves to resolve the structural conflict between model intellectual property and benchmark confidentiality. External evaluations of commercial large language models traditionally face a mutual trust barrier. I

  • Google DeepMind Deploys Backstory to Fact-Checkers for Multi-Agent AI Image Verification

    Google DeepMind has expanded live testing of Backstory, an experimental verification platform designed to investigate the origin, manipulation, and dissemination history of digital images. The system, built on the Gemini model family, is currently deployed across newsrooms, open-source intelligence (OSINT) groups, academic researchers, and fact-checking teams participating in Google's Trusted Testers program. Beyond Binary Synthetic Detection Traditional automated image forensic tools typical

  • Google folds DeepMind into the main business as Hassabis signals an exit

    Google DeepMind is losing the independent status it held since the lab's founding, and founder Demis Hassabis may leave the company in the coming months, according to multiple reports. A former Google manager told the Guardian that the 'era of DeepMind as an independent actor is over,' and a current DeepMind employee now describes the lab as 'just another subdivision' of Google. Day-to-day operations are shifting to AI researcher Koray Kavukcuoglu from the United States, but he is not taking th
