The question that people are debating is whether it makes sense to regulate research and development of AI. And I don't think it does.AI Verified source (2023)

The quote broadly opposes regulating AI research and development: 'I don't think it does.' A mandate requiring big AI companies to devote 30% of compute to safety is a form of such regulation, so the quote clearly implies opposition to the full policy.

The quote says, "I don't think it does" in response to whether it makes sense to "regulate research and development of AI," which clearly opposes an AI R&D mandate like requiring 30% of compute for safety.

The quote clearly opposes regulating AI research and development in general. A UN-led body to oversee compute-intensive AI is a specific form of such regulation/oversight, so the quote implies opposition to the full statement.

The quote clearly opposes regulating AI research and development in general. Since banning superintelligence development until a safety consensus is reached is a form of regulating AI R&D, the quote implies opposition to the full statement.

The quote clearly opposes regulating AI research and development in general: 'I don't think it does.' A mandatory requirement to report large AI training runs to an authority is a form of regulating AI R&D, so the quote implies opposition to the full statement.

The quote says AI research and development should not be regulated: "I don't think it does" make sense "to regulate research and development of AI," which clearly opposes this reporting mandate as a form of regulation.

Verified. WIRED’s interview "How Not to Be Stupid About AI, With Yann LeCun," published December 22, 2023, contains this exact line attributed to Yann LeCun: “The question that people are debating is whether it makes sense to regulate research and development of AI. And I don't think it does.” It appears in the source URL itself (around lines 136–139). ([wired.com](https://www.wired.com/story/artificial-intelligence-meta-yann-lecun-interview/))
