Karpathy is talented and to me he always seemed like someone who would be against building something like skynet. Anthropic is lucky to have him.
Honestly, if Skynet were possible, Anthropic would probably build it first and claim they had to because OpenAI is bad.
Karpathy is probably one of the biggest names in AI, I do wonder where he fits now. He's sort of bounced around Tesla back to OpenAI back to independent. He sort of left OpenAI before it really hit the inflection point, and he was at Tesla for a long time and they didn't really deliver what they wanted on the AI side. Now he's bounced around a few places. I understand that the leaders in this market play this silly g…
> He sort of left OpenAI before it really hit the inflection point Sorry I'm out of the loop... What inflection point are you referring to?
the glorified marketer framing in this thread is missing the bigger signal. karpathy publicly pausing eureka labs to join anthropic is an ai founder of his caliber effectively conceding that verticals get eaten by frontier upgrades.for everyone here building on top of foundation, that's the actual news

5 years at Tesla is an eternity in the tech world. And 2 years is probably pretty average for the whole tech industry.
Depends on the country, I guess. In Europe, it would definitely not be the norm and I would definitely call previous employers if it was several 2 year stints.

they invented MCP, Skills, made these standards open so anyone could build the harness around them.
this pre-IPO is gonna be incredible

> https://gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6bf555914893e9891c11519... Last thing I saw Karpathy talk about was this, which I find hard to believe that it came from a smart person.
Yes, that's probably his dumbest public idea to date. Given that this GPT repos and parts of autoresearch are brilliant I'm sympathetic. I think he's earned the right to exhibit mild expressions of AI psychosis at this point. And, my objection was that he clearly had no understanding of the supply-chain risk he was worsening by advocating widespread use of Obsidian for agentic engineering tasks. Since his announcemen…

Where are you following the comings and goings of small no name product managers like it's a baseball team?
Hahaha wdym? Where have you been dude? Joking aside, there are small communities pushing codex and AI to the bleeding edge of what's possible. Here I'll give you an example. The last few updates from Boris at CC have been tweaks to the system prompt to make it use less compute, effectively making the system dumber, making it tell you to go to bed. I mean come on! Tibo has been impressing me, bc they're building the t…

Tesla self driving works. I don’t know if Karpathy deserves credit for that or not.
Good for him. His learning materials are unmatched, but I don’t think there was a viable path with his educational company.
