The mission of our team is to improve LLM's fundamental capabilities in retrieval and ranking.
Information retrieval is central to Google. With the new generative AI experiences, it is an emerging problem to rethink how retrieval and ranking can be done and build the next-generation LLM-powered solutions.
Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.
LLMs/Gemini have demonstrated impressive capabilities, yet it is an open question whether these models can be used to efficiently solve large-scale retrieval and ranking problems that are central to the Google business.
The goal of our team is to study and build the next-generation LLM-powered retrieval and ranking model, providing an end-to-end generative experience.
The work will have impacts on many applications and workstreams including Ads, Search, personalization/memory and long-context modeling.
Our team has an extensive track record of building embedding and RAG style models at Google. With the new project and roles, we hope to go beyond the conventional embedding and RAG view and revolutionize how retrieval and ranking is done at Google.
