These are times which separate the wheat from the chaff. Those brave enough to speak their moral revulsion to the unwinding of a society based on law and order and decency are to be lauded. Those who stay silent or defend it in the pursuit of wealth or worse are not. Be like Jeff

Pretty gross seeing the glib and gleeful reactions to @ylecun's departure from FAIR. Disagree with his research if you want, but FAIR was an intense and prominent force for good in our field and industry. Many of its later issues (and GenAI's) were from areas out of Yann's hands.

A profile of Meta Chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun, reportedly leaving after being sidelined, who says LLMs are a dead end for AGI and backs world models instead

Yann LeCun invented many fundamental components of modern AI.  Now he's convinced most in his field have been led astray by the siren song of large language models.

Sources: two AI researchers hired by Meta for its Superintelligence Labs returned to OpenAI after less than one-month stints; a third researcher also left Meta

CEO Mark Zuckerberg went on a recruiting blitz to lure top AI researchers to Meta.  WIRED has confirmed that three recent hires have now resigned.

I say this as a measured sceptic about LLMs necessarily being the path to AGI (but accepting I might be wrong): Emily Bender is a hack and brings nothing to the table academically or otherwise. The @FinancialTimes has done the field no favours by giving her a platform.

I've really enjoyed seeing this project produce an agent which does more and more amazing and diverse things every week. A great reminder that games remain an excellent medium to study generalization and complex behavior. Great job, SIMA team!
