I find Lecun’s argument very interesting, and the whole discussion has parallels to the early regulation and debate surrounding cryptography. For those of us who aren’t on twitter and aren’t aware of all the players in this, can you tell us who he’s responding to as well as who “Geoff” and “Yoshua” are?
As the sibling comment by idkwhatiamdoing says, Geoff is Geoffrey Hinton: «Geoffrey Hinton leaves Google and warns of danger ahead» https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcVfceTsD0A
Probably Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Benigo who have had major contributions to the field of A.I. in their scientific careers.
