Exclusive: Google moves Gemini app team to DeepMind unit in latest reorg

Google announced the move in a memo from CEO Sundar Pichai, who also outlined a handful of other organizational changes.

• The Gemini App team, led by Sissie Hsiao, will join Google DeepMind under Demis Hassabis.
• Prabhakar Raghavan — who as head of knowledge and information products has overseen a wide swath of Google products including search, ads, Gemini, shopping and maps — will become chief technologist, a new strategy role reporting to Pichai.
• The move puts Raghavan closer to his academic roots but also takes him away from direct oversight of many of the company's key products.
• Most of Raghavan's current responsibilities, aside from Gemini, will shift to 21-year company veteran Nick Fox, who led the introduction of Google Fi, among other efforts.
