Über diesen Titel

Andrej Karpathy — founding member of OpenAI, former head of AI at Tesla — posted what he called "random notes" on coding with Claude. They're not random. They're one of the most grounded practitioner assessments of what's happening to software engineering. Today: the gains, the failure modes, the transformations, and the shadows.


In this episode:

  • The 80/20 flip: from manual coding to agent coding in one month
  • Tenacity as revelation: "stamina is a core bottleneck to work"
  • The fun paradox: why coding feels more enjoyable, not less
  • The failure catalogue: sycophancy, bloat, and "slightly sloppy junior dev" as mental model
  • Atrophy: generation vs discrimination, and what it means for learning
  • Slopacolypse: bracing for 2026
  • The open questions: 10X engineers, generalists vs specialists, StarCraft or Factorio or music?
