Forked @karpathy's autoresearch so it runs on a Windows gaming PC with a desktop RTX GPU: https://t.co/I1N07xYkkh

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

I packaged up the "autoresearch" project into a new self-contained minimal repo if people would like to play over the weekend. It's basically nanochat LLM training core stripped down to a single-GPU, one file version of ~630 lines of code, then:

- the human iterates on the prompt (.md)
- the AI agent iterates on the training code (.py)

The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement. In the image, every dot is a complete LLM training run that lasts exactly 5 minutes. The agent works in an autonomous loop on a git feature branch and accumulates git commits to the training script as it finds better settings (of lower validation loss by the end) of the neural network architecture, the optimizer, all the hyperparameters, etc. You can imagine comparing the research progress of different prompts, different agents, etc.

Part code, part sci-fi, and a pinch of psychosis :)

I really need a mic for the office

[Dmitry Lyalin @LyalinDotCom]

OK, I’ve tested this extensively. If you’re not talking to your coding agents, you’re just not at full… you’re probably at 25% of your full potential.

@jjacky 982 generation is done, they coming out w a new one soon

@noMukh The applications change but the fundamentals don't

[segov @jonsegov]

Ik plenty of people who have hand written code that don't know what any of these are

In this industry, it’s simple. Builders love it where building is enjoyable. When you remove the joy of building, you risk losing the best builders.

Hate data centers all you want, until the research they enable saves someone you love.

Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index puts Qwen3.8-27B at DeepSeek V4-Pro and GPT 5.6 Luna performance. This is the first time a local model has scored frontier model capability.

We weren’t expecting this pace of local progress anywhere near this soon.

Grok Bot might actually be the best consumer AI product since ChatGPT

@sbilstein fair enough lol, excited to try it out
