According to Meta's chief scientist and deep learning pioneer Yann LeCun, it would probably take decades for the existing artificial intelligence (AI) systems to be able to feel and experience emotions and gain common sense.

In other words, he believes current AI systems aren't capable of going beyond summarising text in creative ways. This aligns with LeCun's statement at a symposium in Hong Kong last month, where leading tech experts, scholars and industry leaders shared their insights on AI.
