Skill Issue: Andrej Karpathy on Code Agents, AutoResearch, and the Loopy Era of AI Mar 20, 2026 · 1 mention

  • ▶ 17:45 Andrej Karpathy Yeah, I, I didn't expect it to work because, so I have the Project NanoChat, um, and fundamentally, like, I think a lot of people are very confused with my obsession for, like, training GPT-II models and so on, but for me, uh, training…

  • ▶ 1:51 unnamed speaker It's like, we know there's sign of life for the algorithms people are picking, but people don't know if we have more data, like what happened to GPT-II, GPT-III, what will happen.

No Priors Ep. 103 | With Vevo Therapeutics and the Arc Institute Feb 25, 2025 · 2 mentions

  • ▶ 55:42 Johnny Yu We're like developing GPT-II, but like, we're like, we don't have enough data, guys. 2 times in the scene

No Priors Ep. 86 | With Sarah Guo & Elad Gil Oct 17, 2024 · 2 mentions

  • ▶ 5:10 Elad Gil Uh, you know, I remember when, I can't remember as VPT two or three came out, uh, people were already talking about, well, what if you can create NPCs that are intelligent, interact with you in a way that makes them feel like people.
  • ▶ 16:18 Elad Gil Yeah, it's kind of like GPT-II for that approach, and the idea is that that could scale further over time, and it's, it's kind of the initial early proof point that you feel like something really real is happening.

  • ▶ 23:58 Bill Peebles Yeah, so as we look, you know, forward to, you know, like the GPT-II or GPT-III moments, I think we're really excited for very complex long-term physical interactions to become much more accurate.
  • ▶ 29:36 Aditya Ramesh I think maybe the biggest update to people with the release of Sora is that internally, we've always made an analogy, as Bill and Tim said, between Sora and GPT models, in that, um, you know, when GPT-I and GPT-II came out, it started to…

No Priors Ep. 47 | With Sourcegraph CTO Beyang Liu Jan 18, 2024 · 1 mention

  • ▶ 5:33 Beyang Liu I remember chatting with someone who had essentially implemented that on top of GPT-II at the time, and it wasn't nearly as good as it is now, even then, you know, like,

  • ▶ 5:19 Alyssa Henry And then more recently, even kind of prior to this kind of latest, um, big shift in the AI landscape, you know, we, we were using GPT two, um, as part of us, the square messages product, um, being, uh, you know, a virtual assistant to…
  • ▶ 8:08 Elad Gil Because, I mean, adopting GPT-II was super early, right?
  • ▶ 15:04 Sarah Guo Can I, uh, ask you to tell us a story of how you guys ended up, um, playing with GPT two for, uh, I think it was like customer, like merchant facing responses to begin with, because that was, we have other, um, a lot and I,
  • ▶ 38:29 Sarah Guo And it takes people who are playing with GPT-II or like an eight by eight image to picture what quality and scale improvement can, um, can happen.

No Priors Ep. 39 | With OpenAI Co-Founder & Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever Nov 2, 2023 · 2 mentions

  • ▶ 13:02 Ilya Sutskever GPT-I started to show very interesting signs of life, and that led us to doing GPT-II, and then ultimately GPT-III.

  • ▶ 3:43 Amjad Masad And every year or two while starting Replit, I would go look at the state of the art on ML on code and nothing ever really worked all that well up until GPT-II. 2 times in the scene

No Priors Ep. 28 | With Khan Academy’s Creator Sal Khan Aug 17, 2023 · 1 mention

  • ▶ 33:37 Sal Khan Any real strategic bearing on what we do at Khan Academy, but just as someone who's followed the industry and has always been fascinated by this, you know, I, I knew I had been following GPT-II, GPT-III, DALI,

No Priors Ep. 18 | With Kevin Scott, CTO of Microsoft May 24, 2023 · 3 mentions

  • ▶ 14:51 Elad Gil I think one of the stunning things about the partnership in some sense was the timing, because if I remember correctly, Microsoft made its first investment or its first significant investment in OpenAI right after GPT-II launched or right… 3 times in the scene
