FAQ about DeepMind

QWhat is the relationship between DeepMind and Google?

Acquired by Google in 2014, it now operates as an independent AI research division under Alphabet.

QHow accurate is AlphaFold?

In the CASP14 competition, it achieved a median accuracy above 90 points, approaching experimental resolution, and its structure database is freely available.

QAre APIs or model downloads available?

Some projects such as AlphaFold and AlphaCode offer online services or code repositories, with licensing and quotas following Google’s terms.

QCan individual developers use the reinforcement learning environments?

Yes. Open-source projects like OpenSpiel and DM-Control provide access and support Gym interfaces, with complete documentation and examples.
