Yann LeCun on GI and much ballyhooed "consciousness"

On the one hand: I know and I’m just poking fun at him.
But on the other hand, he’s advocating for a specific type of learning algorithm: self-supervised learning. I’ve argued elsewhere that animals do all of the types of learning algorithms.
He shows a glimmer of awareness of the fact that AI can copy from animal intelligence, but then he doesn’t follow through with any real facts about how animals work.
