Yann LeCun calls Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei 'deluded' over AI risk
Original: AI ‘godfather’ Yann LeCun: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is ‘deluded,’ ‘crazy,’ and doesn’t understand cybersecurity
Yann LeCun, Meta's chief AI scientist and one of the so-called godfathers of AI, has publicly attacked Dario Amodei, saying the Anthropic chief executive is 'deluded' and 'crazy' and lacks understanding of cybersecurity. The remarks add to an ongoing rift among leading AI figures over how serious the risks of advanced AI are, with LeCun long arguing that fears of catastrophic AI are overblown.
Why now: LeCun's blunt personal attack on a rival AI lab's chief is a sharp escalation in the public debate over AI existential risk.
