@PawelHuryn @karpathy configure a tui onboarding? must be really hard to press arrows and enter
English

@karpathy Sounds plausible. But do we really believe a non-technical person could install and configure it?
I get the impression that the hype was driven by tech enthustast, not avarage users.

Judging by my tl there is a growing gap in understanding of AI capability.
The first issue I think is around recency and tier of use. I think a lot of people tried the free tier of ChatGPT somewhere last year and allowed it to inform their views on AI a little too much. This is a group of reactions laughing at various quirks of the models, hallucinations, etc. Yes I also saw the viral videos of OpenAI's Advanced Voice mode fumbling simple queries like "should I drive or walk to the carwash". The thing is that these free and old/deprecated models don't reflect the capability in the latest round of state of the art agentic models of this year, especially OpenAI Codex and Claude Code.
But that brings me to the second issue. Even if people paid $200/month to use the state of the art models, a lot of the capabilities are relatively "peaky" in highly technical areas. Typical queries around search, writing, advice, etc. are *not* the domain that has made the most noticeable and dramatic strides in capability. Partly, this is due to the technical details of reinforcement learning and its use of verifiable rewards. But partly, it's also because these use cases are not sufficiently prioritized by the companies in their hillclimbing because they don't lead to as much $$$ value. The goldmines are elsewhere, and the focus comes along.
So that brings me to the second group of people, who *both* 1) pay for and use the state of the art frontier agentic models (OpenAI Codex / Claude Code) and 2) do so professionally in technical domains like programming, math and research. This group of people is subject to the highest amount of "AI Psychosis" because the recent improvements in these domains as of this year have been nothing short of staggering. When you hand a computer terminal to one of these models, you can now watch them melt programming problems that you'd normally expect to take days/weeks of work. It's this second group of people that assigns a much greater gravity to the capabilities, their slope, and various cyber-related repercussions.
TLDR the people in these two groups are speaking past each other. It really is simultaneously the case that OpenAI's free and I think slightly orphaned (?) "Advanced Voice Mode" will fumble the dumbest questions in your Instagram's reels and *at the same time*, OpenAI's highest-tier and paid Codex model will go off for 1 hour to coherently restructure an entire code base, or find and exploit vulnerabilities in computer systems. This part really works and has made dramatic strides because 2 properties: 1) these domains offer explicit reward functions that are verifiable meaning they are easily amenable to reinforcement learning training (e.g. unit tests passed yes or no, in contrast to writing, which is much harder to explicitly judge), but also 2) they are a lot more valuable in b2b settings, meaning that the biggest fraction of the team is focused on improving them. So here we are.

The degree to which you are awed by AI is perfectly correlated with how much you use AI to code.

@karpathy @soumitrashukla9 non technical people are downloading something called openclaw and using it in their terminal?
English

@Xanthopteryx1 @ChananBos collision with tractor would be more preferred?
English

@ChananBos Thats not, really, good. Because as we saw, the car jumped a bit, because of, it drove outside of the road. Could have been a flat tire or damaged the car.

I think gstack caused @davis7 to enter psychosis
(next podcast episode is gonna be great)

For a split second I thought Codex was pulling off some next-level shit...
Then I realised that it is just stuck 😂
@thsottiaux is this a bug or a feature ?

You can now experience the power of codex while the little orange thing keeps you company. Works with your ChatGPT subscription, just as everywhere else.
Clearly proof you can just build things. Have fun
Romain Huet@romainhuet
We’ve seen Claude Code users bring in Codex for code review and use GPT-5.4 for more complex tasks, so we thought: why not make that easier? Today we’re open sourcing a plugin for it! You can call Codex from Claude Code with your ChatGPT subscription. We love an open ecosystem!
