AI godfather LeCun says he has zero concerns about human extinction

Original: AI 'godfather' LeCun has 'zero concerns' about human extinction

Yann LeCun, one of the pioneers of modern artificial intelligence, has said he has zero concerns that AI will cause human extinction. He also suggested that Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei, who has warned of catastrophic AI risks, is deluded. The remarks highlight the ongoing split among leading AI figures between doomers and those who consider such fears exaggerated.

Why now: Prominent AI researchers publicly clashing over existential risk keeps the AI safety debate in the spotlight.
