  • Meta’s chief AI scientist Yann LeCun told financial times that the large language models that power AI products such as ChatGPT would never achieve human-like intelligence.

    “It certainly appears to most people as reasoning — but mostly it’s exploiting accumulated knowledge from lots of training data,” LeCun said. “[LLMs] are very useful despite their limitations.”

  • He said he’s working on an entirely new generation of AI models that he hopes would achieve human-level intelligence, although that could take 10 years.

    “We are at the point where we think we are on the cusp of maybe the next generation AI systems,” LeCun said.

  • LeCun leads the Fair Lab team which was created in 2013 and which is focused on long-term AI goals unlike the GenAI team which is responsible for the current generative AI products.
