The Financial Times says LeCun is planning to launch his own start-up and is in early talks to raise funding for it. He’s reportedly planning to leave in the coming months. Meta recently cut approximately 600 jobs from LeCun’s Fundamental AI Research unit as the company shifts its focus to the Superintelligence Labs group, led by chief AI officer Alexandr Wang. Wang was the CEO of Scale AI, which Meta acquired for $14.3 billion.
