Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

yeah, lecun
it's correct because it says it's correct
also "science is published science" mdpi likes that, and also weird to see his claim of 80 papers since 2022 (https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/16521037) that are mostly preprints on background of him saying that peer review is Important
LeCun did actual noteworthy work in AI research previously and is now a shill at Meta.
I must note that even LeCun 2024 could casually shit better science than Musk could ever do.
yeah the guy used to be respected, then went off the deep end. lot of linguists I follow were dunking on some epically bad takes that lecun had in recent years. he's definitely drinking the koolaid afaict
This isn't a shit opener as this isn't an opener (at least I hope so, I have seen parts of this conversation, and didn't check timestamps, and I assume it didn't start this dumb), Musk is having a longer conversaition with LeCun here, and it is a great example of why you shouldn't wrestle with pigs. The pig doesn't care about facts, is just there to entertain itself, and eventually you will do something stupid (like this claim about science) and you will be covered in mud.
The conversation started with Musk going: 'Well what research did YOU do you nobody?' To which LeCun said 'at least 80 papers on AI since 2022 how much did you do?' which Musk Le Epic countered with 'that is not enough you are slacking'.
Don't feed the trolls, esp not when the troll is a billionaire who needs a security detail to get out of the toilet.
this could have begun here https://xcancel.com/ylecun/status/1795034443809165464#m that's bulk of the thread i think https://xcancel.com/ylecun/status/1795589846771147018#m

I'm gonna make a bot with a yellowcheckmark that just replies wargames 'A strange game. The only winning move is not to tweet' at all their tweets.
