Sad news as meta lays off their protein machine learning team. For a while, it was a valuable combination of scientific curiosity, openness, and industrial-scale engineering. https://t.co/y9LY6XCBGh

Major news in AI today. Hinton is the father of modern deep learning and AI. Lecun and Bengio were his postdocs. @ilyasut of OpenAI was his student.

For half a century, Geoffrey Hinton nurtured the technology at the heart of chatbots like ChatGPT. Now he worries it will cause serious harm.

In the NYT today, Cade Metz implies that I left Google so that I could criticize Google. Actually, I left so that I could talk about the dangers of AI without considering how this impacts Google. Google has acted very responsibly.

Super interesting poll results.
Nice. 69% of U.S. adults support a six-month pause. Congratulations to @FLIxrisk, Yoshua Bengio, Stuart Russell, @elonmusk, @stevewoz, @harari_yuval, @EMostaque, @AndrewYang, @GaryMarcus, and 50,000+ signers of the open letter. Read the open letter: https://t.co/XjWGikPZr6

Don't use ChatGPT for academic research. It creates fake citations to papers that don't even exist. Instead, use Scite Assistant โ an AI-powered app designed for researchers. It answers your questions with citations to (real) published papers. Here's how to use it:

Yann LeCun and I have thought a lot about the proposed 6 month AI pause, and plan to chat about it on Friday - the questions it raises for AI and its impact on developers and companies. Please join @ylecun and me for the conversation! RSVP here:
