I think Marcus’s problem here is less with not being given credit as it is with how LeCun has suddenly shifted to similar opinions without any attempt at reconciling how, until very recently, he openly denigrated Marcus and his ideas.

Marcus has a strong case there, but he could do a better job focusing on that issue…
So what now (or, has anything changed since the last time this came up)?

Marcus seems to be in the right (though his seething saltiness seems to me to dilute his message), and LeCun has done nothing so far but double down on dickishness.

LeCun probably should issue a retraction and an apology, before this really bites him in the arse.
