The post Yann LeCun argues LLMs will drive real-world applications, but not human-level thinking appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Yann LeCun, Meta’s chief AI scientist and one of the godfathers of deep learning, is making a nuanced argument that cuts against both AI hype and AI doomerism simultaneously. Large language models are commercially useful, he says. They’ll justify the billions being poured into GPU clusters and data centers. But the bubble isn’t in the infrastructure spending. It’s in the belief that these models can think like humans. The case for LLMs as utility, not oracle LeCun’s argument is straightforward once you strip away the academic jargon. LLMs are good at a growing list of practical tasks: coding assistance, enterprise search, document summarization, customer service automation. These applications generate real revenue and solve real problems. That makes the massive infrastructure buildout, the GPU farms and the power plants, a defensible investment. LeCun dr

Apple is hoping that its record on privacy can be the differentiator on the AI front, and maybe even buy it a little slack as it continues to lag behind the competition. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the more chatbot-like Siri set to debut in iOS 27 will include the option to autodelete chat histories. Users will be able to save conversations for 30 days, one year, or forever. That's in stark contrast to the other major players in the space that generally only offer temporary incognito chats, if that. It appears Apple is betting that people are willing to give up some convenience in the name of greater privacy, as anxiety around AI … Read the full story at The Verge.
Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt delivered the commencement address at the University of Arizona on Friday. And, as his speech veered into talk of AI, he was repeatedly drowned out by boos. AI is already a contentious topic, and it's not surprising that those about to enter a ravaged job market feel particularly negative about it. Schmidt acknowledged the anxiety, according to Business Insider, saying fears "that the machines are coming, that the jobs are evaporating, that the climate is breaking, that politics are fractured, and that you are inheriting a mess that you did not create," were "rational." But Schmidt's frustration was also palpa … Read the full story at The Verge.
