Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

I think these models are good in certain parts of the stack.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

I actually use the models a little bit in... There are two examples where I actually use the models that I think are illustrative.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

One was when I generated the report.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

That's actually more boilerplate-y.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

So I actually bytecoded partially some of that stuff.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

That was fine.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

Because it's not like mission-critical stuff and it works fine.

And then the other part is when I was rewriting the tokenizer in Rust...

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

I'm actually not as good at Rust because I'm fairly new to Rust.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

So I was doing, there's a bit of vibe coding going on when I was writing some of the Rust code.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

But I had Python implementation that I fully understand and I'm just making sure I'm making a more efficient version of it and I have tests.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

So I feel safer doing that stuff.

And so basically they lower or like they increase accessibility to languages or paradigms that you might not be as familiar with.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

So I think they're very helpful there as well.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

Yeah.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

Because there's a ton of Rust code out there.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

The models are actually pretty good at it.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

I happen to not know that much about it.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy โ€” AGI is still a decade away

So the models are very useful there.

Dwarkesh Podcast

And I think you're getting at some of my, like why my timelines are a bit longer.
