EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Yann LeCun is one of the fathers of deep learning, the recent revolution in AI that has captivated the world with the possibility of what machines can learn from data. He is a professor at New York University, a Vice President & Chief AI Scientist at Facebook, co-recipient of the Turing Award for his work on deep learning. He is probably best known as the founder of convolutional neural networks, in particular their early application to optical character recognition.

EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Lex Fridman Podcast, featuring Lex Fridman and Yann LeCun, Yann LeCun: Deep Learning, ConvNets, and Self-Supervised Learning | Lex Fridman Podcast #36 explores yann LeCun outlines path to human-level AI through self-supervision Yann LeCun discusses the limitations of current AI, arguing that real progress toward human-level intelligence requires self-supervised learning and rich predictive models of the world rather than just bigger supervised or reinforcement learning systems.
