<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYkIdXwW2AE&t=181">3:01</a> really important correct: Yann did not create CNNs. He figured out how to train CNNs with backpropagation.CNNs were invented by Kunihiko Fukushima.

THANK YOU. I have repeatedly complained on YouTube about the lousy quality of the presentation of Yann's ideas in so many other, unrelated videos. Thanks for fixing this. PS I love your book!

I’ve been wandering through Youtube for such a long time. Mostly scrolling through endless clickbait. Videos with incredible storytelling make me remember why I’m addicted to this format, congrats!
