Tom sits down with Yann LeCun, the Jacob T. Schwartz Professor of Computer Science at NYU, and Executive Chairman of Advanced Machine Intelligence Labs.
Yann is co-winner of the 2018 ACM Turing Award for his research in neural network learning. Yann takes us from his days as a postdoc working with Geoffrey Hinton, through his days as Chief AI Scientist at Facebook/Meta. His simultaneous roles as a Professor at NYU and Chief AI Scientist at a large AI provider give Yann a unique perspective on how technological advances and commercial forces combined to get us to today's state of the art.
