‘AI will Soon Match or Surpass Human Intelligence,’ says Yann LeCun
Chief AI Scientist at Meta, Yann LeCun said that soon we will have technology to empower individuals with AI assistants, essentially creating a personal team of digital helpers for everyone with internet access. As he focused on predicting technological advancements and their potential as a scientist, he emphasised that we will have AI that will match or surpass human intelligence. “Access to these AI systems won’t necessarily be limited to smartphones. Future hardware will likely include devices like smart glasses that can see, hear, and remember things on your behalf. These glasses could answer your questions and provide assistance, similar to having a team of human staff available at all times,” said LeCun. He further mentioned that such systems will also enable seamless communication between people in different languages, as prototypes already exist that can translate hundreds of languages in real-time. This transformative technology is expected to emerge in a year or two. RIP Smartphones Yann LeCun has been vocal about smartphones becoming obsolete. Earlier he noted that in the next 10-15 years we won’t have smartphones, and will be using augmented reality glasses and bracelets to interact with intelligent assistants. “The last thing we might want is intelligent virtual assistants that help us in our daily lives. So today all of us here are carrying a smartphone in our pockets, 10 years from now or 15 years from now we’re not going to have smartphones anymore we’re going to have augmented reality glasses”, said LeCun. As technology evolves, innovations like the Limitless AI Pendant and WIZPR Ring are launched to harness the power of AI and interact with large language models. While Humane AI spent the last year making the case that the Ai Pin will replace smartphones, allowing people to interact more with the real world, it received a mixed reaction. Now, next in line is Elon Musk’s Neuralink, which is working on producing electronic devices that can be implanted into the brain and used for communication with machines and other individuals. They look forward to making it as common as a smartphone, further opening up a world of possibilities for both medical and technological advancements.
