Hi! I am Ankesh Anand, a Research Scientist in AI at Google DeepMind, London. I am a core-contributor on the Gemini project working on RL for reasoning and new capabilities.
Most recently, I played a key role in building Gemini 2.5 Pro, 2.5 Flash and Project Mariner.
Earlier, I graduated from IIT Kharagpur with a Bachelors and
Masters in Mathematics and Computing. I have also spent time at VISA, HackerEarth and Google Summer of
Code.
Check out my recent blog post
on how we should think about RL in the era of foundation models!
