Meta’s chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun has shared two key things required to safeguard humanity from the potential risks of advanced artificial intelligence (AI), while agreeing with the field’s leading figure and “Godfather of AI” Geoffrey Hinton, who said that building empathy and submission into the core architecture of AI systems is key to AI safety.
