Google DeepMind to open new AI research lab in Singapore

SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Google DeepMind said on Wednesday it is opening a new artificial intelligence research lab in Singapore that will focus on collaboration with governments, businesses, and academic institutions across Asia.  The AI unit owned by Alphabet said it had doubled its Asia-based team over the past year and already begun hiring for the lab.
