🧠 Yann LeCun: “LLMs? Nobody Will Use Them in 5 Years!”

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Meta’s chief AI scientist Yann LeCun dropped a bombshell 💣—he thinks Generative AI and LLMs (Large Language Models) are doomed!

Why? Because they “aren’t capable of much.” Ouch. 😬

According to LeCun, in the next 3 to 5 years, “nobody in their right mind would use them anymore.” 🔥


🚨 So, What’s the Problem with LLMs?

LeCun laid out four big reasons why our beloved AI chatbots (👀 ChatGPT, Bard, Claude) aren’t as smart as we think:

  1. No awareness of the physical world 🌍 – They don’t know how to interact with objects or reality (so no, ChatGPT can’t help you move furniture). 🛋️
  2. Memory loss 🧠❌ – They forget things faster than your grandpa does. No continuous memory means no long-term learning.
  3. Lack of reasoning 🤷‍♂️ – They manipulate language well but struggle with actual thinking.
  4. Can’t plan complex tasks 📅❌ – Forget about AI making life decisions; it can’t even plan your weekend efficiently.

🔮 The Future: What’s Next for AI?

LeCun believes we’re heading into a whole new AI era, and within 3-5 years, AI will:

  • 🧠 Develop common sense (Finally, an AI that doesn’t suggest pizza toppings for a birthday cake 🎂🍕).
  • 👀 Learn from the world by observing and interacting with it—like a curious toddler, but smarter.
  • 🤖 Welcome the “Decade of Robotics”, where AI meets robots for real-world applications.

Meta is apparently working on “mental models of the world”, meaning future AI might actually understand things rather than just regurgitate Wikipedia. 📖💡


🤖 But Wait… OpenAI and Perplexity Disagree!

While LeCun was busy predicting the doom of LLMs, OpenAI and Perplexity were like: “Hold my beer.” 🍺

On Friday, they unveiled their new agentic AI models, which claim to excel at complex multi-step tasks:

  • 🛒 Operator (OpenAI): Orders your groceries if you give it a list.
  • ✈️ Flight booking: Just drop your itinerary, and AI handles it.
  • 🤣 Meme-making: AI = your personal meme factory.

Looks like LLMs aren’t going down without a fight! 🥊


🎯 Is This Just AI Hype?

LeCun says the “AI revolution” might still be 10 years away, but with how fast AI is evolving, it could be much closer. 🚀

Meanwhile, Sam Altman and the OpenAI team are busy building AI agents that can book you dinner reservations and even manage your shopping. 🍽️🛍️

So… who’s right? 🤔


🏁 Final Thoughts

While LeCun is convinced that GenAI will soon be outdated, companies like OpenAI are doubling down on LLMs and their capabilities.

For now, AI is still learning—just like us—making mistakes, failing, and sometimes ordering pineapple pizza 🍍🍕 when you didn’t ask for it.

👀 Stay tuned for more AI drama and breakthroughs.
