The Thinking Game
Although artificial intelligenceโor AI as it is now universally knownโhas exploded into public consciousness over the last two years, it has a long history, beginning with the early days of computing and has accelerated into concrete reality over the course of the nearly three decades since IBM’s Deep Blue computer beat Garry Kasparov, the world champion, in a six-game set. DeepMind, a leading AI lab owned by Google, followed in Deep Blue’s footsteps but with the intent of producing an intelligence that can perform beyond the specialist realm of challenges such as chess. In unravelling the mysteries of artificial general intelligence and unlocking its infinite possibilities, DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis sees all the world’s problems as potentially solvable. Told from inside DeepMind’s London headquarters, the film chronicles the journey of Hassabis and his team as they relentlessly pursue an artificial intelligence that matches or surpasses human abilities on a wide range of tasks.
