AI's understanding of reality is superficial: AI 'godfather' Yann

Meta Chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun, considered as a godfather of AI, said AI's understanding of reality is "very superficial". "We're easily fooled into thinking [AI systems] are intelligent because of their fluency with language," he said, adding, "On path towards human-level intelligence, an LLM is basically...a dead-end." LLMs won't get smarter as they lack reasoning and planning, he said.
