shaunbjohnson(@shaunbjohnson):Congratulations to @224ventureshq co-founder @ylecun on being named to the @TIME 100 AI 2026 list. Yann has spent four decades quietly building the foundations the rest of the field now stands on — from convolutional networks to his current bet, at Advanced Machine Intelligence, that world models are the path beyond today's LLMs. What TIME captures, and what I get to see up close, is his conviction that the next chapter of AI won't be written by scaling what already works. It'll come from researchers willing to question the paradigm and build something new. Lucky to be building alongside him. More to come from 224.
