整理 | 褚杏娟 据《金融时报》报道，全球社交媒体巨头 Meta 的首席人工智能科学家、图灵奖得主 Yann LeCun 计划离开公司，并着手创办一家 AI 初创企业。 知情人士透露，这位被誉为"深度学习先驱"的法裔美籍科学家已在内部沟通中表示，将在未来几个月内离职。LeCun 已经开始与潜在投资者进行早 期接触。 无论是 Meta 还是 LeCun 本人，目前都未对此消息发表评论。这位图灵奖得主尚未透露离职时间表，其新公司的具体方向也暂无公开信息。他在 纽约大学的教授职位将保持不变。 LeCun 的离职发生在扎克伯格全力重塑 Meta 人工智能战略的关键时期。扎克伯格已逐步将重心从 LeCun 自 2013 年起领导的 Meta 基础 AI 研究 实验室（FAIR）那种长期研究型工作，转向更快速地推出模型和 AI 产品。他认为 Meta 在竞争中已经落后。 不意外的离开 LeCun 的离开并不令人意外。过去几个月，他对 Meta 内部的一些变化愈发感到不满。据报道，他尤其反感公司新出台的内部研究发表规定，即研 究成果在对外发布前必须经过更严格的内部审查。多名团队成员认为，这一政策限制了学术自由。 Meta ...
