Yann LeCun, the Chief AI Scientist at Meta and a notable figure in the field of artificial intelligence, has announced his departure from the company to establish his own AI startup. LeCun, who has been with Meta since 2013, plans to continue his research on Advanced Machine Intelligence (AMI) through his new venture. The startup aims to develop AI systems with the ability to understand the physical world, possess persistent memory, and plan complex actions. Despite his departure, LeCun’s startup will maintain a partnership with Meta. The decision comes amidst restructuring within Meta’s AI division, which recently saw the creation of the Meta Superintelligence Labs unit led by Alexandr Wang, and the hiring of prominent AI researchers. LeCun will remain with Meta until the end of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
