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.AI Verified source (2026)

The quote is authentic and correctly attributed to Yann LeCun. The cited Business Today page reports him as saying, “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,” and separately quotes his follow-up, “It’s still wrong, destructive, and dangerous.” Moneycontrol also embeds the April 18, 2026 X post with the same first passage (there with U.S. spelling “labor” and the continued economist list after “this”), so the supplied quote is a faithful omitted-text version.

Quote attributed to Yann LeCun about Dario Amodei being wrong and knowing "absolutely nothing" about technological revolutions and labor markets. Web search confirms this from his X post (April 18, 2026) and covered by BusinessToday India at the provided URL. Multiple sources (Capacity, AIC, MIT Sloan ME) corroborate the exact phrases. Vote "for" is correctly aligned -- LeCun argues against AI job destruction claims and points to economists who study this. Year 2026 is current. Quote is relevant to statement 389.

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.
