- sept. 2026 – aujourd’huiEmployee, Google DeepMindNo source read for this entry attests a title, a team or a start date, so none is given: the only attestation is frominside.ai, which names his employer and lists him under “Past employees”, and his own quoted sentence, which speaks of when he first joined GDM. The date carried here is the earliest attestation of the role, not a start, and no end date is sourced either — the role is recorded as the project states it and no further.Source →
