Lecture by Meta AI Expert: Can Large Models Approach Human Intelligence?
As part of the prestigious international JSALT 2025 workshop, held at the Faculty of Information Technology of Brno University of Technology (FIT BUT), scientists from around the world are addressing the latest challenges in speech, language, and artificial intelligence processing. This renowned AI research event, long organized by the American Johns Hopkins University, attracts global leaders in the field of natural language and speech processing to Brno. One of them is Loïc Barrault from Meta AI in France.
Loïc Barrault will deliver a lecture titled Large Concept Model: beyond token-based Large Language Models on Tuesday, July 15 at 11:00.
He will focus on the question of whether large language models can acquire key human intelligence abilities – such as reasoning, planning, and hierarchical and multilingual information processing. More details can be found at: https://jsalt2025.fit.vut.cz/plenary-lectures#4. You can attend the lecture in person in room E112 at FIT BUT or watch it online on the JSALT YouTube channel.
