I-JEPA: The first AI model based on Yann LeCun’s vision for more human-like AI
As pointed out by Jesus Rodriguez on TheSequence, 'With all the hype surrounding generative AI, we sometimes overlook the thrilling advancements in other areas of the deep learning ecosystem.' I-JEPA from Meta research is one such.
Meta, a company I generally detest, is making real contributions in AI, including significant (partly) open source efforts such as the LLAMA model, which has fueled massive independent development. I trust Meta … to do what’s good for Meta alone, but in AI they’re (probably accidentally) doing a lot of good.
