DeepMind Tightens AI Research Publication Controls

News summary

Google's DeepMind is implementing stricter controls on the release of its AI research to protect its competitive edge and manage the risk of exploitation by rivals like OpenAI. The changes include a tougher vetting process and a six-month embargo on certain 'strategic' papers, especially those involving generative AI. This move marks a departure from DeepMind's traditional openness, as seen with the 2017 Transformers paper that significantly influenced the generative AI field. Critics, including Anita Schjøll Abildgaard of Iris.ai, warn that this could stifle innovation and collaboration within the AI research community. DeepMind defends the policy as a necessary strategic adjustment in response to investor pressure and growing competition. Despite the new restrictions, DeepMind continues to publish numerous papers under a responsible disclosure policy for security-related findings.
