I won't be surprised if Musk hires him. But I hear LeCun hates the guts of Musk.

Musk doesn't appear interested in AI research - he's basically doing the same as Meta and just pursuing me-too SOTA LLMs and image generation at X.ai.

  • Musk only cares about AI as far as it can be used to replace all sources of information with versions that will say whatever he wants and spout his worldview of the day.

    Musk cares about AI research as much as he cared about Path of Exile

Musk wants people who can deliver results, and fast.

If LeCun can't cough up some research that's directly applicable to Grok or Optimus, Musk wouldn't want him.
