Year Month and date Event type Details
2010 September DeepMind is founded. "Hassabis cofounded DeepMind in 2010 alongside Shane Legg, a machine learning researcher from New Zealand, and childhood friend Mustafa Suleyman, who had dropped out of a degree in philosophy and theology at Oxford to set up a counselling service for young Muslims."[1]
2014 January 27 "On 27 January 2014, Google made its biggest European acquisition to date, when it splashed out £400 million on DeepMind, a small startup with a grand ambition: "To solve intelligence and then to use that to solve everything else.""[1]
2014 Recognition DeepMind receives the "Company of the Year" award from Cambridge Computer Laboratory.[2]
2015 June "Suleyman gave a rare insight into DeepMind's work during a machine learning conference in London in June 2015."[1]
2015 September "In September 2015, DeepMind partnered with the Royal Free NHS Trust to develop a patient safety app called Streams that reviews test results for signs of sickness and sends staff instant alerts if an urgent assessment is required. The app also helps clinicians to quickly check for other serious conditions such as acute kidney injury and displays results of blood tests, scans, and x-rays at the touch of a button."[1][3]
2017 July "In July 2017, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) ruled that the Royal Free had breached the Data Protection Act by providing DeepMind with the personal data of around 1.6 million patients."[1]
2018 December ""I'd be much more pessimistic about the way the world is going to go if I didn't know there was something as game-changing as AI on the way," Hassabis told The Times in December 2018."[1]
