Deep mind is breaking new ground in number of directions. For example, "Decoupled Neural Interfaces using Synthetic Gradients" is simply amazing - they can make training a net async and run individual layers on separate machines by approximating the gradients with a local net. It's the kind of thing that sounds crazy on paper, but they proved it works.
Another amazing thing they did was to generate audio by direct synthesis from a neural net, beating all previous benchmarks. If they can make it work in real time, it would be a huge upgrade in our TTS technology.
We're still waiting for the new and improved AlphaGo. I hope they don't bury that project.
