The source text indicates David Silver's current primary role is CEO of Ineffable Intelligence. His DeepMind role is described in past tense ('Until recently, I led the reinforcement learning team at DeepMind'), suggesting he is no longer in that position. The record claims he is currently a 'Principal Research Scientist' at 'Google DeepMind' with a start date of 2013, but the source contradicts his current affiliation and role. The source does not support the claim that he currently holds this position at Google DeepMind.
