John Jumper just left Google DeepMind for @AnthropicAI.

This is the guy who won the 2024 Nobel Prize for AlphaFold — the AI that mapped over 200 million protein structures. Nine years at DeepMind, now gone.

Just a day before, Noam Shazeer jumped ship to OpenAI. That's three senior DeepMind exits in three months.

The real story here isn't the tech anymore. It's the talent war. Watch where the builders go — that's where the next wave is forming.
