Chief AI Scientist at Meta Yann LeCun spoke at the Viva Tech conference in Paris and said that artificial intelligence does not currently have human-level intelligence but could do one day. Current artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT do not have human-level intelligence and are barely smarter than a dog, Meta's AI chief said, as the debate over the dangers of the fast-growing technology rages on. At the same panel, Yann LeCun, chief AI scientist at Facebook parent Meta, was asked about the current limitations of AI. He focused on generative AI trained on large language models, saying they are not very intelligent, because they are solely coached on language. "What it tells you we are missing something really big … to reach not just human level intelligence, but even dog intelligence," LeCun concluded.
