This week we unpack a growing split inside the AI world, centred on Yann LeCun — Meta’s AI pioneer who thinks LLMs are a dead end. Reports suggest he’s preparing to walk, after being quietly sidelined under Meta’s “superintelligence” push and made subordinate to a 28-year-old ex-data-labelling kingpin, Alexander Wang. His alternative is the “world model” approach: systems grounded in physics and perception rather than predictive text. LET'S GOOOOOOOO.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
De Chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun van Meta stapt na twaalf jaar op en begint met zijn eigen AI-startup. Dat bevestigt Bloomberg, nadat het gerucht al even in de lucht hing. LeCun uitte openlijk kritiek op de visie van Meta en de grote focus op LLM's. De fundamentele meningsverschillen tussen LeCun en Meta-baas Mark Zuckerberg zorgde regelmatig voor interne conflicten. Rosanne Peters vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Zelf gelooft LeCun meer in een toekomst waar de focus ligt op Advanced Machine Intelligence. Deze technologie zou voorspellingen kunnen doen over de fysieke wereld en op een andere manier worden getraind dan LLM's. Volgens LeCun wordt dit de nieuwe grote AI-revolutie van de toekomst.

Empezamos el episodio analizando el éxito de la nueva serie de Apple TV+, "Pluribus", a la que comparamos con "Severance" por su impacto en redes sociales y su calidad de producción, con un coste estimado de 15 millones por episodio. Comentamos las impresionantes localizaciones grabadas en Gran Canaria y Bilbao, y cómo esta serie reafirma la estrategia de Apple de producir contenido original de alto valor. Enlazamos esto con las declaraciones de Eddie Cue sobre la ausencia de anuncios en Apple TV+ por el momento, aunque prevemos un aumento de precios futuro debido a la inclusión de nuevos contenidos deportivos como la MLS y la Fórmula 1 en algunos mercados, una estrategia que ya hemos visto en otros servicios de streaming.Continuamos explorando la sorprendente noticia del futuro soporte de CarPlay en vehículos Tesla, un movimiento inesperado considerando la resistencia de Tesla y la tendencia de otros fabricantes a retirar esta funcionalidad. Discutimos nuestras preferencias personales por CarPlay y cómo esta integración podría influir en las decisiones de compra de vehículos eléctricos. También abordamos la polémica sobre el "iPhone Pocket", un accesorio de moda de Issey Miyake, y analizamos la tradición de Apple en colaboraciones de diseño de alta gama. Finalmente, explicamos el lanzamiento de la identificación oficial digital en la app Wallet del iPhone en Estados Unidos, comentando la necesidad de un rediseño de la interfaz de Wallet y la controversia que ha generado entre algunos sectores de la población.Mirando al futuro de la inteligencia artificial, comentamos la posible salida de Yann LeCun, director de IA en Meta, para fundar su propia compañía. Especulamos sobre el interés de Apple en esta investigación más académica y el potencial de su integración con el desarrollo del Vision Pro. Asimismo, analizamos los nuevos productos de Valve, el Steam Machine y las gafas Steam Frame, que prometen revolucionar el mundo del videojuego con un enfoque en el streaming y el renderizado foveado, planteando interrogantes sobre posibles batallas legales por la estandarización y el control de plataformas. Cerramos con un análisis de los cambios en las políticas de la App Store en China, específicamente el acuerdo con Tencent para las mini-aplicaciones de WeChat, y cómo estas nuevas reglas, que imponen una comisión del 15% y limitaciones de diseño, podrían influir en el desarrollo de "super apps" y la creación de mini-aplicaciones generadas por IA, como el caso de Wavi.

Bruno et Jérôme reviennent sur une série d'actualités tech marquantes, avec une bonne dose de taquineries autour du iPhone Air, un appareil promis à une carrière écourtée. Quelques mots sur le nouveau OnePlus 15, salué pour son autonomie impressionnante, sa fluidité et son rapport qualité-prix. Le duo s'amuse ensuite de l'« iPhone Pocket », un accessoire Apple décrit comme une chaussette design vendue à prix fort pour les fêtes. Puis, la démission de Yann LeCun de Meta retient toute leur attention. Le segment se poursuit avec une discussion sur GPT-5.1 et sur les coûts astronomiques de Sora 2.0. Enfin, ils commentent la vidéo très commentée du robot humanoïde russe AIDol, avant d'ouvrir sur les avancées européennes en robotique et l'annonce d'un premier microprocesseur souverain conçu en France.
On revient sur le départ annoncé de Yann LeCun, patron de la recherche en IA chez, GPT-5.1, la chute du robot russe AIdol, la chaussette connectée d'Apple : l'actu techno vue depuis Paris et Montréal.Avec Bruno Guglielminetti (Mon Carnet)Yann LeCun claque la porte de MetaLe cofondateur de l'IA moderne quitte Meta après douze ans. Une rupture révélée par le Financial Times qui traduit un désaccord de fond avec Mark Zuckerberg. L'arrivée d'une nouvelle direction plus business-oriented, incarnée par Alexandr Wang (Scale AI), aurait précipité son départ. Yann LeCun pourrait lancer sa propre start-up — une bonne nouvelle pour une IA plus éthique et utile.GPT-5.1 : plus personnalisé, plus utile ?OpenAI corrige le tir après le flop de GPT-5. La version 5.1 promet une IA plus « friendly », avec des vitesses de réponse réglables (Auto, Instant, Thinking) et des interactions plus naturelles. Mais la vraie question reste : à quel prix ? Selon Forbes, faire tourner Sora, le générateur vidéo d'OpenAI, coûterait 15 millions de dollars par jour.Russie : le bide robotiqueLe robot humanoïde russe AIdol s'effondre en direct lors de sa présentation officielle. Une séquence surréaliste qui contraste avec les approches plus prudentes d'acteurs comme Wandercraft (France) ou 1X Technologies (Norvège). Ces entreprises misent sur l'intégration industrielle et l'assistance au quotidien plutôt que sur l'effet d'annonce.Côté smartphone : OnePlus 15, iPhone PocketBruno teste le OnePlus 15 : design soigné, autonomie de deux jours, processeur Qualcomm dernière génération… un excellent rapport qualité/prix. Pendant ce temps, Apple commercialise l'iPhone Pocket, un étui textile designé par Issey Miyake vendu jusqu'à 250 € — un produit gadget déjà culte… et introuvable.À écouter dans Monde Numérique et Mon CarnetDans L'Hebdo, je donne la parole à SiPearl, concepteur du futur microprocesseur souverain européen, et je reçois le journaliste Guillaume Grallet pour son livre Pionniers.Dans Mon Carnet, Bruno Guglielminetti revient sur le sommet du jeu vidéo à Montréal, l'impact des IA sur le site du gouvernement du Québec, et les essentiels pour se lancer dans le podcast.-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

Reports suggest Yann Le Cun, one of the "godfathers of AI", is leaving Meta after over a decade pioneering artificial intelligence research at Mark Zuckerberg's tech titan. Le Cun says he no longer believes that scaling up large language models of the kind that power ChatGPT will lead to superhuman intelligence. Instead, he's betting on "world models", AI that learns more like a baby than a bot.
Aujourd'hui dans Silicon Carne, on parle de :
Le patron français de la recherche en IA de Meta sur le départ, cyberattaque pilotée par une IA, microprocesseur souverain : encore un épisode bourré de tech et d'IA !
Yann Le Cun, lo storico capo dell'AI di Meta, pare stia per lasciare l'azienda e fondare la sua startup. Nel frattempo la costruzione The Line in Arabia Saudita è bloccata a causa di problemi di budget (e di un progetto forse un po' troppo ambizioso).

Andrew and Ben analyze SpaceX's nearly $20 billion in purchases by first touching on cell carrier history and the power dynamics that iPhones upended 20 years ago. Then: Understanding the SpaceX business and Musk's approach to strategy, what Starlink is trying to do with satellite internet on airlines, a power play with cell carriers that appears to have failed earlier this year, and now, a Plan B that may involve an acquisition and a bid to partner with Apple. At the end: Why Yann LeCun leaving Meta is the right outcome for both sides, a question about big companies and innovation spawns regulation cautionary tales and a cigar anecdote, and wondering about the impact of big tech on AI's future.

This contradicts virtually everything Google's previously said about using AI generated content at scale so it might be Google moving into the search marketing space on purpose or it could be one part of the Googleverse running ahead of another without first making sure their narratives aligned with each other. Meanwhile, we've learned how much it will cost for Gemini to white label itself to Apple's Siri, $1Billion per year. Apple will pay Google a cool $1B to have Gemini act in the background with Siri's familiar tone in the foreground. This while Google is accused in a civil suit of using Gemini to track private communications of users in email, messaging apps and video-conferencing sessions. The case, Thele v. Google LLC, 25-cv-09704, is being heard in a district court in San Jose. Google is also defending its algorithmic actions targeting parasitic SEO programs after the EU announced an investigation into a complaint that Google intentionally demoted several news sites in search results. It may be a case of abuse of a parasitic complaints process. Yann LeCun, chief AI scientist at Meta is openly talking about quitting and founding his own startup. LeCun has said he no longer believes in the long term viability of LLMs. Canadian Bitcoin mining giant Bitfarms is winding down its energy on grinding out bitcoins to focusing on becoming an AI data center powerhouse.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-ochtú lá de mhí na Samhna. Is mise Alanna Ní Ghallachóir.Dúirt saoránach Éireannach a sádh agus é ar an traein go Londain gur “an nádúr a bhí ann” nuair a chuaigh sé i mbealach an ionsaitheora le paisinéirí eile a chosaint. Goineadh deichniúr san eachtra foréigin ar an traein idir Doncaster, baile in oirthuaisceart Shasana, agus Stáisiún Chrosaire an Rí i Londain, oíche Dé Sathairn seo caite. Cuireadh na póilíní ar a n-airdeall faoin éigeandáil ar bord na traenach ag 7.40in an oíche sin. Ba é Stephen Crean, ar as Baile Átha Cliath í a mháthair agus ar as Ros Comáin é a athair, duine de na híospartaigh, in éineacht le Samir Zitouni, a rith i dtreo an ionsaitheora agus a thug aghaidh ar an chontúirt. Dúirt marthanóir an ionsaithe go raibh sí fíorbhuíoch de Crean as a chuid crógachta.Bhí an t-iománaí mór le rá DJ Carey os comhair na cúirte mar go ndearna sé calaois ar dhaoine nuair a lig sé air go raibh ailse air agus go raibh airgead de dhíth air ar son cóir leighis. Gearradh téarma príosúnachta 5 bliana go leith ar an iar-iomanaí clúiteach, a bhain cúig Chraobh na hÉireann ag imirt do Contae Chill Chainnigh. Ghlac sé beagnach €400,000 ó 22 duine agus níl ach €44,000 íoctha ar ais go dtí seo. Dúirt an Breitheamh Nolan go raibh sé “thar a bheith doiligh céard a bhí ina chúis leis” agus gur “tháinig Carey i dtír ar dhea-nádúr na ndaoine.” Chuala an chúirt nach raibh dochúlacht ann go bhfaighidh a chuid íospartach a n-airgead ar ais, ach gur inis do “leithscéal croíuíl, cneasta” a thabhairt d'achan íospartach. Dúirt ‘máthair bhaistí' na hintleachta saorga go bhfuil sí “bródúil as a bheith difriúil”, agus í an t-aon bhean amháin as seachtar ceannródaithe na hintleachta shaorga ar bronnadh duais inealltóireachta orthu Dé Céadaoin.

There's an argument I sometimes hear against existential risks, or any other putative change that some are worried about, that goes something like this: 'We've seen time after time that some people will be afraid of any change. They'll say things like "TV will destroy people's ability to read", "coffee shops will destroy the social order","machines will put textile workers out of work". Heck, Socrates argued that books would harm people's ability to memorize things. So many prophets of doom, and yet the world has not only survived, it has thrived. Innovation is a boon. So we should be extremely wary when someone cries out "halt" in response to a new technology, as that path is lined with skulls of would be doomsayers." Lest you think this is a straw man, Yann Le Cun compared fears about AI doom to fears about coffee. Now, I don't want to criticize [...] --- First published: October 22nd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/cAmBfjQDj6eaic95M/doomers-were-right --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Our chat with Ari shows that data curation is the most impactful and underinvested area in AI. He argues that the prevailing focus on model architecture and compute scaling overlooks the "bitter lesson" that "models are what they eat." Effective data curation—a sophisticated process involving filtering, rebalancing, sequencing (curriculum), and synthetic data generation—allows for training models that are simultaneously faster, better, and smaller. Morcos recounts his personal journey from focusing on model-centric inductive biases to realizing that data quality is the primary lever for breaking the diminishing returns of naive scaling laws. Datology's mission is to automate this complex curation process, making state-of-the-art data accessible to any organization and enabling a new paradigm of AI development where data efficiency, not just raw scale, drives progress. Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 00:46 What is Datology? The mission to train models faster, better, and smaller through data curation. 01:59 Ari's background: From neuroscience to realizing the "Bitter Lesson" of AI. 05:30 Key Insight: Inductive biases from architecture become less important and even harmful as data scale increases. 08:08 Thesis: Data is the most underinvested area of AI research relative to its impact. 10:15 Why data work is culturally undervalued in research and industry. 12:19 How self-supervised learning changed everything, moving from a data-scarce to a data-abundant regime. 17:05 Why automated curation is superior to human-in-the-loop, citing the DCLM study. 19:22 The "Elephants vs. Dogs" analogy for managing data redundancy and complexity. 22:46 A brief history and commentary on key datasets (Common Crawl, GitHub, Books3). 26:24 Breaking naive scaling laws by improving data quality to maintain high marginal information gain. 29:07 Datology's demonstrated impact: Achieving baseline performance 12x faster. 34:19 The business of data: Datology's moat and its relationship with open-source datasets. 39:12 Synthetic Data Explain ed: The difference between risky "net-new" creation and powerful "rephrasing." 49:02 The Resurgence of Curriculum Learning: Why ordering data matters in the underfitting regime. 52:55 The Future of Training: Optimizing pre-training data to make post-training more effective. 54:49 Who is training their own models and why (Sovereign AI, large enterprises). 57:24 "Train Smaller": Why inference cost makes smaller, specialized models the ultimate goal for enterprises. 01:00:19 The problem with model pruning and why data-side solutions are complementary. 01:03:03 On finding the smallest possible model for a given capability. 01:06:49 Key learnings from the RC foundation model collaboration, proving that data curation "stacks." 01:09:46 Lightning Round: What data everyone wants & who should work at Datology. 01:14:24 Commentary on Meta's superintelligence efforts and Yann LeCun's role.

The AI Breakdown: Daily Artificial Intelligence News and Discussions
A groundbreaking Harvard study trained AI on 10 million solar systems and found it perfectly predicted orbits but completely failed to understand gravity, raising questions about whether LLMs can develop true world models. While companies pour billions into scaling, Meta's Yann LeCun believes current systems will be "obsolete within 3-5 years" and argues that world models could revolutionize AI by giving machines genuine understanding of physical reality. This explores three competing paths to AGI, why Google DeepMind is hiring world model teams, and whether we're looking at the missing piece for human-level AI.Brought to you by:KPMG – Go to https://kpmg.com/ai to learn more about how KPMG can help you drive value with our AI solutions.Blitzy.com - Go to https://blitzy.com/ to build enterprise software in days, not months AGNTCY - The AGNTCY is an open-source collective dedicated to building the Internet of Agents, enabling AI agents to communicate and collaborate seamlessly across frameworks.

Tout est parti d'une question posée par un abonné : « Quelle est ta vision sur la stratégie IA de Meta ? »Alors PPC a creusé. Il a voulu aller plus loin.

Des études récentes révèlent des taux d'hallucination qui empirent concernant les chatbots d'IA. Quelles conséquences ? Comment faire face à ce phénomène ? L'intelligence artificielle générative est partout… mais elle reste profondément bancale. Le phénomène est de plus en plus inquiétant : les hallucinations des IA, ces moments où les modèles inventent des faits, des citations, voire des événements entiers. Plus grave encore, ces erreurs semblent augmenter à mesure que les modèles deviennent plus puissants.Pourquoi ces hallucinations surviennent-elles ? Quelles sont les limites structurelles des IA actuelles, comme celles de ChatGPT ou Gemini ? Et surtout, que faire face à cette technologie qui se généralise sans qu'on puisse pleinement lui faire confiance ? Médias, justice, médecine : aucun domaine n'est à l'abri des conséquences d'une réponse erronée générée par une IA.Alors que les géants du secteur promettent des solutions (alignement des modèles, apprentissage renforcé, avertissements…), certains experts comme Yann LeCun doutent que le problème puisse un jour être complètement résolu.-----------

We're bringing you a special episode of On With Kara Swisher! Kara sits down for a live interview with Meta's Yann LeCun, an “early AI prophet” and the brains behind the largest open-source large language model in the world. The two discuss the potential dangers that come with open-source models, the massive amounts of money pouring into AI research, and the pros and cons of AI regulation. They also dive into LeCun's surprisingly spicy social media feeds — unlike a lot of tech employees who toe the HR line, LeCun isn't afraid to say what he thinks of Elon Musk or President-elect Donald Trump. This interview was recorded live at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center in Washington, DC as part of their Discovery Series. Learn more about your ad choices.
