alt Hacker NewsI'm sad that Andrej Karpathy went from being one of the most reasonable, trusted, and credible voices in AI to peddling marketing slop for Anthropic.

Or maybe over these 8 months agents improved a lot? You know, few years ago many AI experts predicted that things we are routinely doing now with AI are decades away. I mean how can you look at this post and not be impressed? It's insane what AI is currently capable of.
What narrative has changed ? I just see an experiment with a very perfectible result and some reflections about what capacity are currently missing to have better results.
He makes a very good point here about llms or lrms not being good at taking video as inputs, and i think he's signaling his intent to help change that. He's pointing at an open problem. This isn't a carefully structured blog post, it's just a tweet.
