@GaryMarcus LeCun spoke the truth at Meta about LLMs not being a pathway to AGI. Meta Corp has now woken up to this fact, but they have to shoot the messenger, or hide him away, so as not to cause market panic.

Meta just re-orged their AI, now apparently all under Alexandr Wang — is LeCun just a wall decoration at this point?

Memo from Zuck (not LeCun), w no mention of LeCun:

The statement is part of a discussion on AI development and organizational changes at Meta, touching on the strategic direction of AI research and the role of key individuals.
