My prior is that Yann LeCun tends to have unmysterious, thoughtful models of AI (example), even though I strongly disagree with (and am often confused by) his claims about AI safety. So when Yann says “emotion”, I wonder if he means anything more than that they “can decide what they do” and have “some intrinsic drive that makes them [...] do particular things” as opposed to having “preprogrammed behavior”.
