Comment by Yann LeCun
Computer scientist, AI researcher
Dario is wrong. He knows absolutely nothing about the effects of technological revolutions on the labour market. Don't listen to him, Sam, Yoshua, Geoff, or me on this topic. Listen to economists who have spent their career studying this. [...] It's still wrong, destructive, and dangerous.

Quote attributed to Yann LeCun about Dario Amodei being wrong and knowing "absolutely nothing" about technological revolutions and labor markets.

AI Unverifiable
Source URL (BusinessToday) returned HTTP 403, blocking direct fetch. Web search confirms Yann LeCun posted on X in April 2026: "Dario is wrong. He knows absolutely nothing about the effects of technological revolutions on the labor market." The post was in response to Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's AI job loss warnings. LeCun urges listening to economists rather than AI CEOs. Confirmed by the X post and BusinessToday, Capacity, Storyboard18. Vote direction (for) is correct since LeCun dismisses job loss claims as wrong and dangerous. Year (2026) and author attribution are correct.
