Yann LeCun’s vision of autonomous machines

Yann LeCun published a blueprint to create \”autonomous machine Intelligence\” in the middle of the heated debate over AI sentience.

LeCun’s ideas have been compiled in a paper which draws inspiration from advances in machine learning and robotics. It also takes into account the progress made in neuroscience, cognitive science, and neurobiology. He presents a roadmap to create AI that can understand and model the world and reason in different timescales.

The paper, while not a scholarly work, provides an interesting framework to think about the various pieces required to replicate human and animal intelligence. The paper also reveals how LeCun’s mindset has changed since he was awarded for his pioneering work in deep learning. It also explains why he believes that current AI approaches will not lead to a human-level AI.
