A University and Corporate Perspective with Yann LeCun

Tom sits down with Yann LeCun, the Jacob T. Schwartz Professor of Computer Science at NYU, and Executive Chairman of Advanced Machine Intelligence Labs.

Yann is co-winner of the 2018 ACM Turing Award for his research in neural network learning. Yann takes us from his days as a postdoc working with Geoffrey Hinton, through his days as Chief AI Scientist at Facebook/Meta. His simultaneous roles as a Professor at NYU and Chief AI Scientist at a large AI provider give Yann a unique perspective on how technological advances and commercial forces combined to get us to today's state of the art.
