In April, Google made a dramatic move to face down the threat from Microsoft and OpenAI: it combined its AI research team, Brain, with DeepMind.
By fusing it with its central AI unit, Google sent an unambiguous message that it was pulling out all the stops to supercharge its work in AI.
Insider obtained internal org charts that reveal the new power structure of Google DeepMind.
Hassabis oversees around 2,450 full-time employees, the majority of which are Google DeepMind employees.
Dean, who previously oversaw all of Google's AI unit, has moved from his management position into the new role of Chief Scientist, reporting directly to CEO Sundar Pichai.
