Showcase

Join us at the Google DeepMind booth for the following sessions

Improving medium range global weather forecasting with GenCast

Tuesday 10th December: 13:00-13:30

ML is transforming the way we talk about and predict the weather. Join us as we share our recently released and published weather model, GenCast, and how it builds on our previous deterministic model, to create forecasts consisting of an ensemble of 50+ predictions with unprecedented accuracy up to 15 days out. Explore its potential to reshape how we understand and respond to weather.

AI for Education : LearnLM Tutor

Tuesday 10th December: 16:00-16:30

LearnLM, an experimental research model based on Gemini and fine-tuned for learning, has recently been released for preview access via Google AI Studio. We will talk about the challenges and promises of fine-tuning Gemini for pedagogy and demo the model.

AI Tools for Music Creation

Tuesday 10th December: 18:30-20:00

Come try out the latest advancements in real-time music generation. We’ll explore MusicFX DJ, a new type of live musical instrument developed to allow anyone, regardless of prior skill level, to steer and control a generative musical jam session. There will be a talk to dive into how the model works, and live demos for everyone try out together.

Mastering Chess With Language Models

Wednesday 11th December: 09:30-10:00

Interested in the development of planning and reasoning capabilities with large language models? Join us as we showcase a number of ways in which we can utilize games, and chess in particular, to help accelerate the development of such strong reasoning in LLMs. We'll first show what is possible with transformers without explicit planning steps, and then demonstrate explicit internal and external planning strategies, finishing off with a live Gemini “Chess champ” demo.

Meet the Gemini Team

Wednesday 11th December: 12:00-13:00

Join us as members of the team working on Gemini will be at the booth to meet and answer questions.

The Gemmaverse and the research its powering

Wednesday 11th December: 14:00-14:30

Looking for a high performance lightweight model for research or personal use? You’ll be interested in the Gemma family. We’ll show the various variants of Gemma, and the research they’re powering in this talk. By the end of the session you’ll know exactly where to get these models and how to use them for your own needs.

Astra

Come to learn about Genie 2, a foundation world model capable of generating an endless variety of action-controllable, playable 3D environments for training and evaluating embodied agents. Based on a single prompt image, it can be played by a human or AI agent using keyboard and mouse inputs.

Protein Function Prediction - challenges and opportunities

Thursday 12th December: 12:30-13:00

Ever wondered how scientists figure out what a protein does? See our model predict protein function in real-time! How do we know if a model made a novel prediction or an error? We'll demonstrate how we go beyond simple ground truth matching to evaluate prediction quality and automatically find supporting evidence, providing a new level of confidence in the results.

Isomorphic Labs - designing new medicines with AI

Thursday 12th December: 14:00-14:30

We are evolving the field of drug discovery by developing new AI models like AlphaFold 3 and beyond, allowing us to better understand disease and design new therapeutic molecules in-silico. We can use these models to discover drug candidates. Learn about our cutting-edge AI tech, and some of the most exciting challenges our growing team of AI researchers and engineers are working on currently.
