Karpathy outlines three software eras: human-written code, trained neural weights, and now natural language prompts. He claims LLMs treat English as code, making traditional coding steps optional. The linked talk will explain why this shift matters in 40 minutes.
- Karpathy frames software history as three eras: 1.0 (hand-written code), 2.0 (neural net weights), and now 3.0 (natural language prompts)
- In Software 3.0, English prompts function as code and LLMs act as the CPU running them
- This makes traditional coding infrastructure (compilers, libraries, frameworks) optional rather than mandatory
- A 40-minute talk/demo is promised to explain why this shift matters
