Andrej Karpathy Unveils microGPT to Demonstrate Core Mechanics of Large Language Models
Andrej Karpathy, former OpenAI researcher and Tesla Autopilot AI lead, has introduced microGPT, a GPT-style language model distilled into just 243 lines of pure Python. The project is built without PyTorch, TensorFlow, or NumPy, demonstrating how large language models function at their core through simplified implementation.
