| 2014 || October 29 || {{w|AI}} development || DeepMind unveils a neural network that can access an external memory like a conventional {{w|Turing machine}}. The project mimics properties of the human brain's short-term working memory. The result is a computer able to mimic some of the brain’s memory skills and even program like a human.<ref>{{cite web |title=Google's Secretive DeepMind Startup Unveils a "Neural Turing Machine" |url=https://www.technologyreview.com/s/532156/googles-secretive-deepmind-startup-unveils-a-neural-turing-machine/ |website=technologyreview.com |accessdate=29 May 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Hornyak |first1=Tim |title=Google's DeepMind AI project apes human memory and programming skills |url=https://www.pcworld.com/article/2841232/google-ai-project-apes-memory-programs-sort-of-like-a-human.html |website=pcworld.com |accessdate=29 May 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Computer with human-like learning will program itself |url=https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg22429932-200-computer-with-human-like-learning-will-program-itself/ |website=newscientist.com |accessdate=29 May 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Google reveals it is developing a computer so smart it can program ITSELF |url=https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2813303/Google-reveals-developing-computer-smart-program-ITSELF.html |website=dailymail.co.uk |accessdate=29 May 2019}}</ref>

| 2014 || November || Notable comment || {{w|Elon Musk}} submits a comment to <code>edge.com</code> about the threat of AI:
{{Quote|The pace of progress in artificial intelligence (I'm not referring to narrow AI) is incredibly fast. Unless you have direct exposure to groups like Deepmind, you have no idea how fast-it is growing at a pace close to exponential. The risk of something seriously dangerous happening is in the five year timeframe. 10 years at most. This is not a case of crying wolf about something I don't understand.

| 2015 || September || Partnership || DeepMind partners with the Royal Free NHS Trust to develop a patient safety application aimed at reviewing test results for signs of sickness and sending staff instant alerts if an urgent assessment is required. The app would also help clinicians to quickly check for other serious conditions such as acute kidney injury and display results of blood tests, scans, and x-rays at the touch of a button.<ref name="Google DeepMind: the story behind the world's leading AI startup"/><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://techcrunch.com/2017/08/31/documents-detail-deepminds-plan-to-apply-ai-to-nhs-data-in-2015/|title=Documents detail DeepMind’s plan to apply AI to NHS data in 2015|last=Lomas|first=Natasha|work=TechCrunch|access-date=28 May 2019|language=en}}</ref>
