#MCInterview | 🚨 "For a 20-year-old, the question is what specialty should I learn? You should study very basic things that have a long shelf life - mathematics, physics, basic computer science, applied mathematics. Those are things that would be necessary to understand and develop the next generation of AI system," says Meta's Yann LeCun Catch the full interview of @ylecun with @chandrarsrikant and @tsuvik👇 youtu.be/1IBYmEgY3_E?feature… #Meta #ArtificialIntelligence
