Andrej Karpathy

Andrej Karpathy appears in 151. 17岁被2026年ICML收录论文的小少年：我bet开心！开心！开心！ as a public AI educator whose long from-scratch GPT/Transformer video helped Su Tinghao / 苏廷昊 understand modern language-model structure. The source later says Su challenged himself to write a simple Transformer from memory, which shows the video becoming embodied engineering practice rather than passive content.

In this source, Karpathy belongs to the AI-Native Youth Research infrastructure: open videos make the internals of Transformer Architecture accessible to motivated students before formal university training.
