But is it a good idea?
One possible avenue that LeCun is exploring is using the human development model to train AI.

“What kind of learning do humans and animals use that we are not able to reproduce in machines?
That’s the big question I’m asking myself,” he said.
Creativity is a uniquely human trait, and it is difficult to replicate this using technology.
But tremendous obstacles remain before AI develops anything like human-level intelligence.
The potential of AI has been studied over the centuries, AI expertMeltem Ballansaid in an email interview.
Researchers often argue over how to mimic human perception, attention, and motivation.
Open sources bring AI closer to a human level of perception, Ballan added.
“We urgently need to accelerate the use of AI-driven automation just to keep up,” he added.
“The economic impact is profound, but still, we cannot call it ‘human-level AI.'”
However, most experts agree that bias will continue to be a risk in the development of human-level AI.
