Demis Hassabis in The Thinking Game Roco Films
It was a bold choice to host a preview screening of The Thinking Game, a documentary about AI company Google DeepMind and its co-founder Demis Hassabis (pictured above), in the week before International Women’s Day.
Things start well. Hassabis is likeable and compelling, and the film is well-crafted with a pacy narrative. There is great archive footage of the young Hassabis and smart use of animation to illustrate his early life as a savant-level chess champ, drawn to his later career by a passion to understand intelligence.
It is an incredible story…
