To complete the loop, we need an AI avatar of Karpathy doing text-to-voice from the transcript. Who says AI can't boost productivity!

I listened to it with an old fashion CMU speech synth.

Do the talk's predictions about the future of the industry project beyond a few weeks? If so, I'd expect the salient points of the talk to remain valid. Hmm...

i synced the slides with the talk transcript here : https://latent.space/s3

so you took my transcript and put it behind a newsletter sub? haha. just share them!

not quite, i compiled the slides within a few hours of the talk yesterday well before your transcript was available. the slides are my main output/contribution. a full slides+transcript is too long for substack. i've linked your transcript prominently for people to find, and used it to fix slide ordering because twitter people took terrible notes for the purpose of exact talk reconstruction.

i exepct YC to prioritize publishing this talk so propbably the half life of any of this work is measured in days anyway.

100% of our podcast is published for free, but we still have ~1000 people who choose to support our work with a subscription (it does help pay for editors, equipment, and travel). I always feel bad that we dont have much content for them so i figured i'd put just the slide compilation up for subscribers. i'm trying to find nice ways to ramp up value for our subs over time, mostly by showing "work in progress" things like this that i had to do anyway to summarize/internalize the talk properly - which again is what we published entirely free/no subscription required

gotcha. def a good idea! i'm only a bit wary of making all of this a bit too put together, as to create an official source before there is one.

that being said, HN is a negative place, and not what I was trying to go for. thank you for your work with the slides!

Let's all make HN a less negative place.

(As a step towards making it a non-negative place.)

Looks like you are putting a derivative behind a paywall though, no? I think quid pro quo let pudiklubi publish your work too? Some kind of open license?

btw i think your transcript is missing most of the Perplexity slide discussion, right after the Cursor example

What a poor judgement he must have if his outlook becomes irrelevant in a few weeks' time.

Edit: the emoji at the end of the original sentence has not been quoted. How a smile makes the difference. Original tweet: https://x.com/karpathy/status/1935077692258558443

It was in jest, more a take of how quickly things move in AI

We better stop talking about the future then.

Every time you talk about the future, it gets altered.

Hard determinists would disagree

Even if universe is not deterministic, what he said still does not make sense because him talking about future is part of destiny.

They basically have to.

the way I read it it's more about how fast examples and references become irrelevant. fundamentals of the speech not.
