Over the weekend, Andrej Karpathy—the influential former Tesla AI lead and co-founder and former member of OpenAI who coined the term "vibe coding"— posted on X about his new open source project, autoresearch. It wasn't a finished model or a massive corporate product: it was by his own admission a simple, 630-line script made available on Github under a permissive, enterprise-friendly MIT License. But the ambition was massive: automating the scientific method with AI agents while us humans sleep. "The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement," he stated on X.The system functions as an autonomous optimization loop. An AI agent is given a training script and a fixed compute budget ( [...]
This weekend, Andrej Karpathy, the former director of AI at Tesla and a founding member of OpenAI, decided he wanted to read a book. But he did not want to read it alone. He wanted to read it accompan [...]
AI vibe coders have yet another reason to thank Andrej Karpathy, the coiner of the term. The former Director of AI at Tesla and co-founder of OpenAI, now running his own independent AI project, recent [...]
DeepSeek, the Chinese artificial intelligence research company that has repeatedly challenged assumptions about AI development costs, has released a new model that fundamentally reimagines how large l [...]
Andrej Karpathy, former AI researcher at OpenAI and Tesla, is skeptical of the current hype surrounding agent-based AI and large language models.<br /> The article AI researcher Andrej Karpathy [...]
Just last October, Andrej Karpathy dismissed AI agents: "They just don't work." Now he says 80 percent of his coding is agent-based and calls it the "biggest change to my basic cod [...]
AI developer Andrej Karpathy let an autonomous agent optimize his training setup overnight, and it found improvements he'd missed despite two decades of experience.<br /> The article Andrej [...]
“When you get a demo and something works 90% of the time, that’s just the first nine.” — Andrej KarpathyThe “March of Nines” frames a common production reality: You can reach the first 90% [...]
According to Karpathy, the era of manual programming is over: AI agents now handle complex tasks in minutes instead of days. As late as fall 2025, he saw things very differently, but December changed [...]
Andrej Karpathy, a former Tesla and OpenAI researcher, is part of a growing movement in the AI community calling for a new approach to building large language models (LLMs) and AI systems.<br /> [...]
