I met with the head of the Data Science institute at NYU a few years ago (not LeCun). I don't remember the specifics of our conversation, but I remember at one point I mentioned Jeff Hawkins (I had just read his book "On Intelligence") and I remember he responded with some comments that were politely dismissive of Hawkins.
Some of the other comments here seem to share the same sentiment. I really loved his book, but I haven't really followed his work for the past few years. Anyone know what he's been up to in ML/AI lately?
