Google CEO Demis Hassabis
Correction

Demis Hassabis is not the CEO of Google. He is the co-founder and CEO of Google DeepMind; Google and Alphabet are led by Sundar Pichai.

Full reasoning

This misstates Hassabis's role.

Official Google DeepMind materials identify Demis Hassabis as "Co-founder and CEO, Google DeepMind" and say the lab is "led by our CEO Demis Hassabis." Google’s own author page for Sundar Pichai identifies him as "CEO of Google and Alphabet."

So the article’s wording incorrectly calls Hassabis the CEO of Google rather than the CEO of Google DeepMind.
