Right, and he also very recently said that he felt essentially left behind by AI coding advances, thinking that his productivity could be 10x if he knew how to use it better.

It seems clear that Karpathy himself is well aware of the difference between "vibe coding" as he defined it (which he explicitly said was for playing with on hobby projects), and more controlled productive use of AI for coding, which has either eluded him, or maybe his expectations are too high and (although it would be surprising) he has not realized the difference between the types of application where people are finding it useful, and use cases like his own that do not play to its strength.
