About this episode
<p>In this episode, Hannah is joined by Oriol Vinyals, VP of Drastic Research and Gemini co-lead. They discuss the evolution of agents from single-task models to more general-purpose models capable of broader applications, like Gemini. Vinyals guides Hannah through the two-step process behind multi modal models: pre-training (imitation learning) and post-training (reinforcement learning). They discuss the complexities of scaling and the importance of innovation in architecture and training processes. They close on a quick whirlwind tour of some of the new agentic capabilities recently released by Google DeepMind. </p><p>Note: To see all of the full length demos, including unedited versions, and other videos related to Gemini 2.0 head to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqYmG7hTraZD8qyQmEfXrJMpGsQKk-LCY">YouTube</a>.</p><p>Future reading/watching: </p><ul><li><a href="https://deepmind.google/ ">Gemini 2.0</a> </li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH74gNeryhQ&">Decoding Google Gemini with Jeff Dean</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64pndvbbokA">Gaming, Goats & General Intelligence with Frederic Besse</a></li></ul><p>Thanks to everyone who made this possible, including but not limited to: </p><p>Presenter: Professor Hannah Fry</p><p>Series Producer: Dan Hardoon</p><p>Editor: Rami Tzabar, TellTale Studios </p><p>Commissioner & Producer: Emma Yousif</p><p>Music composition: Eleni Shaw</p><p>Camera Director and Video Editor: Bernardo Resende</p><p>Audio Engineer: Perry Rogantin</p><p>Video Studio Production: Nicholas Duke</p><p>Video Editor: Bilal Merhi</p><p>Video Production Design: James Barton</p><p>Visual Identity and Design: Eleanor Tomlinson</p><p>Commissioned by Google DeepMind</p><p>— </p><p>Subscribe to our <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@UCP7jMXSY2xbc3KCAE0MHQ-A ">YouTube channel </a></p><p>Find us on <a href="https://twitter.com/GoogleDeepMind">X</a></p><p>Follow us on <a href="https://instagram.com/googledeepmind">Instagram</a></p><p>Add us on <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/deepmind/">Linkedin</a></p> <p><p>Please leave us a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts if you enjoyed this episode.
