The AI landscape just shifted. Demis Hassabis is exiting DeepMind’s daily operations, leaving a power vacuum at Google’s core. As senior talent flees, the future of Gemini hangs in the balance.

- **The Risk:** Critical brain drain threatens AGI momentum.
- **The Future:** Will Google promote internally, hire an outsider, or decentralize?

The titan is evolving.
