One of the better people to track for the sequence from Gopher to retrieval-augmented language models and then into Gemini, especially if you care about how DeepMind actually iterated on the frontier-model recipe.
Researcher Profile
Editor reviewedLisa Anne Hendricks
Compute-optimal scaling for LLM training
Contributor to Google DeepMind's Gemini and large-language-model program
A useful page for the DeepMind work that connected large-language-model scaling to the multimodal Gemini push, with a clearer safety-and-evaluation flavor than many purely scaling-focused pages.

People worth exploring next because they share topics, labs, or source material with this profile.
Worth tracking for the DeepMind thread that links large-model scaling research to the multimodal Gemini stack, rather than treating those as separate eras.
A useful profile for the core DeepMind contributor layer behind Chinchilla, Gopher, and Gemini rather than only the more public faces of those systems.
A useful profile for the DeepMind researchers who helped carry the lab’s language-model program from scaling-law work into Gemini rather than appearing only on the final product layer.
A useful profile for the DeepMind researchers who sat inside the core language-model program as it moved from scaling-law analysis into the Gemini family.
A useful page for the less visible engineering and research work behind DeepMind’s modern language-model stack, especially across the jump from Gopher and Chinchilla into Gemini.
