Nobel laureate John Jumper moves from DeepMind to Anthropic

Friends, a quick AI update: John Jumper, Nobel Prize winner 2024 for AlphaFold, is leaving DeepMind to join Anthropic after nearly nine years at the company.

Key points:
- In his post on X he thanked the GDM team and Demis Hassabis.
- Bloomberg reports he helped develop coding tools Google sought to commercialize.
- Meanwhile Noam Shazeer is also leaving DeepMind for OpenAI.

Why it matters: intensifying competition for top talent and a likely push toward commercializing AI products.

What consequences do you foresee for the AI market?
