It is understood that Pohlen is responsible for the integration of the "Macrohard" sector under XAI. This unit was established during the recent restructuring of the organizational structure of xAI, and the core business focused on the operation of digital intelligence..

DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis recently said in a podcast that the current capabilities of artificial intelligence are overhyped. However, he also stressed that the long-term potential of this technology, especially in terms of general artificial intelligence (AGI), is still underestimated.

While widespread interest shows that artificial intelligence will play a positive role in daily life, this attention also brings a lot of noise. For experts like Hassabis who have been deeply involved in the field of artificial intelligence for many years, it is a great pleasure to see the public gradually realize that artificial intelligence...
