@ylecun it's the first time using neural networks but definitely not the first time doing digit recognition. That was around way before that

@ylecun For sure, this is CNN for digit recognition

@ylecun It's mind blowing to think how far we have come in these years, especially in the last 5 years.

@ylecun 5? Just think about 3!

@ylecun It reminds me of that holographic, hand-controlled technology Elon Musk demonstrated in an interview 15 years ago. The kind of innovation that feels like it’s just months away from becoming mainstream, yet somehow ends up taking decades to materialize.

@ylecun The video is actually from 1989 and he's 29. He always makes that correction whenever this video pops up:)))

@ylecun thanks for making that correction Alex

@ylecun hope this is how we will talk about quantum computing in 2040
