INTERVIEW —
YANN LECUN

Yann Lecun, one of the brightest minds in machine learning today, recently won the Turing Award, the highest prize in computer science. His work lies behind some of the most critical AI applications, including computer vision systems that power everything from face recognition software to self-driving cars. He

Eye on AI sat down with Yann to talk about hIs first computer, about how music led him into computer science, and about his work on self-supervised learning, which he believes will take us to human-level intelligence in machines.
