Google has released the documentary “The Thinking Game”, which covers its AI wing DeepMind and was filmed over five years. The film tells the story of how Nobel laureate Demis Hassabis‘s passion for chess transformed into AI, and the team’s incredible rise leading to the biology-changing AlphaFold, all for free.
Google has made the documentary “The Thinking Game”, featuring the DeepMind team who achieved one of the biggest breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence, accessible for free. Selected at the 2024 Tribeca Festival, this approximately 90-minute film reveals the history of Google’s AI team, their groundbreaking discoveries, and the behind-the-scenes of the AI revolution.
DeepMind’s Story: From Chess Prodigy to Nobel Prize
“The Thinking Game” documentary was filmed over a period of exactly five years by the same team that previously shot the 2017 documentary AlphaGo. The film focuses on the life of Nobel laureate Demis Hassabis. It details how Hassabis‘s career, starting as a chess prodigy in his childhood years, shaped his interest in artificial intelligence.
The documentary presents DeepMind‘s journey to viewers chronologically. We witness the team’s adventure ranging from building systems that taught artificial intelligence to play Pong (albeit slowly), to developing systems like AlphaFold that can predict the 3D structure of proteins with incredible accuracy.
This adventure of DeepMind has become a powerful example showing how artificial intelligence reached the potential to solve not only simple games but also the most complex problems of biology and the scientific world.
