Don't get fooled by people who claim to have a solution to Artificial General Intelligence, who claim to have AI systems that work "just like the human brain", or who claim to have figured out how the brain works (well, except if it's Geoff Hinton making the claim). Ask them what error rate they get on MNIST or ImageNet.

Additional quotes by Yann LeCun

[AI progres is very dependent on Moore's law.] The one thing that allowed big progress in computer vision with ConvNets is the availability of GPUs with performance over 1 Tflops.

The analogy I've been using is the fact that perhaps an equivalent event in the history of humanity to what might be provided by Generalization of AI assistant is the invention of the printing press. It made everybody smarter.

The vast majority of human knowledge is not expressed in text... LLMs do not have that, because they don't have access to it. And so they can make really stupid mistakes. That’s where hallucinations come from.
