It's like bragging about earning a good salary and then it turns out that you work for your dad.
Sounds like corporate funny money to me, not real revenue.

If it was, it probably wouldn’t be accounted for in taxable fashion as it is today.
DeepMind is profitable and paying tax on that profit. It’s public information that you can see in its UK regulatory filings.
This was paid by Google for unspecified research services. But the way it’s accounted for it’s likely that it was based on some legitimate contribution. It is unlikely it would be structured this way if it was just corporate support.
DeepMind has public financial filings and you can go read the exact language they use to describe the revenue they generate.
