周建功 / Zhou Jiangong

Zhou Jiangong is the guest in E226｜聊聊DeepMind创始人哈萨比斯：一个科学家与失控的AI竞赛. The source identifies him as a technology and financial media worker, formerly involved with Forbes China and Yicai, and as a translator of books related to Jensen Huang and Demis Hassabis.

His specific value in the episode is interpretive. Zhou draws on a 2017 interview with Hassabis and on translating Sebastian Mallaby’s biography to describe Hassabis as calm, concrete, fast-switching, and more “wise” than just smart. He also supplies the source’s view that Hassabis and DeepMind belong to a pre-ChatGPT AGI history rather than a post-ChatGPT hype cycle.
