AI is 'not smart'

[Joe (Schwarz)]

Hi

“We don’t have robots that are nearly as good at understanding the physical world as a rat,” says Yann LeCun, one of the leading figures in the world of artificial intelligence.
…
“They’re not a path towards human level or human-like intelligence, or even animal-like intelligence, because they cannot deal with real world data, they just are not built for that,”
…
“They [LLMs] basically just accumulate knowledge… They can regurgitate something, you train them to regurgitate, but they’re not particularly smart. They don’t have an underlying understanding,”
…
“LLMs are largely hopeless for robotics, the claims that somehow by just scaling up LLMs, we’re going to reach super human intelligence, that is simply not going to happen.”

I found this BBC article about AI and agree with LeCun (not Cung Le, the Vietnamese-American MMA fighter) It’s very informative and hilarious For example, the pen on its tip… and you can start to muse about the new model called Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA) …a lot of abstract math.
