Yann LeCunn is, in a very real sense, a prime example of everything that is wrong with AI research.
And still he has a thousand times the integrity of the rat.
Could you please elaborate on that ? I've never heard of this
There’s some serious bad blood in the AI academic world between the old farts that toiled thanklessly all through the thirty years of the AI winter, proving all sorts of fundamental theorems, only to get steam rolled by (relative) newcomers with big tech backing the very second tech started catching up to the math. Things got pretty heated with accusations of academic malpractice, and generic assholery.
Yann is one of the main participants in this drama. The other is a Swiss professor that is about equally friendly.
wow it's just assholes all day 'round in ai land
And you should see the assholes that the uncensored image generators contribute!
Who's the swiss prof?

Note how the titles of his recent papers are all “ is a special case of <thing I published in the 90s>”
I like this part very much:
One thing you should know about him is that he is self reported to have a really good twitter game.
Well I would if I had it
Ehh, self reports are unreliable. Get me an objective study and then we'll talk
