No way I could see that happening. I mean, they might conceivably decide to fold the group into Google Research rather than keep the DeepMind name, but I doubt they'd do even that due to the name recognition that DeepMind has garnered even among the general public.
The idea that they'd take the people and put them to work making Blogger better or something? Not a chance. AI research is pretty much Google's core function. They'd no more break up that functional area than Apple would take Jonny Ive's team and put them answering support calls.
