@chrsaravia @karpathy Explained beautifully, couldn't be better.
@chrsaravia @karpathy karpathy was doing fine until Step 2 then everything went to shit AI: is not a sentient cloud. It’s a giant, static geometry a pretrained manifold waiting for your telic injection (prompt). “Next-word prediction” sounds trivial until you realize: Each “word” is a node in a
@chrsaravia @karpathy This was a starting point into LLMs for me Even though I am non tech guy, the explanation is so clear that I now can tell my friends what is it and how it works) Kudos to @karpathy
@chrsaravia @karpathy Well said, especially number 2
@chrsaravia @karpathy yep, basically just two files and a bunch of vague promises about the future of humanity
