Meta's chief AI scientist says terrorists and rogue states aren't going to take over the world with open-source AI

Meta AI's Chief AI Scientist, Yann LeCun, believes that criminals and terrorists will not be able to exploit open-source AI systems for malicious purposes. He states that the significant amount of resources, including funding and talent, required for such an endeavor make it unlikely. LeCun also mentions that even wealthy states like China face difficulties in controlling open-source AI due to export bans on AI chips imposed by the US. Meta AI has been advocating for an open-source approach to AI development, distinguishing itself from competitors like OpenAI and Google. LeCun has dismissed notions of AI posing an existential threat to humanity in the past.
