I thought the actual 30 papers have never been disclosed. Do you have a source tying the recommendations back to Ilya, or did you come up with this list?
I think someone on Twitter made it up. It was also 40 papers, not 30. https://dallasinnovates.com/exclusive-qa-john-carmacks-diffe...
This list was made by some guy on twitter. https://x.com/keshavchan/status/1787861946173186062
It's unknown whether it has anything to do with Ilya Sutskever.
The list I got was from ex-OpenAI employee Andrew Carr on X. I believe he said in his post however that the list he uploaded is not the full list they were provided at OpenAI however.
