About Ilya Sutskever's 30 Papers

Explore the deep learning reading list Ilya Sutskever gave John Carmack, with free audio explainers for AlexNet, ResNet, Transformers, scaling laws, and more. These courses, books, and code-heavy pieces do not currently have a ListenDock audio episode. When legendary game programmer John Carmack decided to move into AI, he asked OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever what he should read. Ilya handed him a list of around thirty works and said that learning them would cover 90% of what matters in modern deep learning.

About Open SAR

With open-source tooling + AI, turn fragmented public information into an interactive Common Operating Picture within the golden 72 hours after a disaster strikes. The data and dashboard are archived as a standalone incident repo and registered in the global index for reuse and review. Once loaded, an AI can generate COPs for new disasters automatically. Data follows one contract; the dashboard is just a renderer and can be regenerated at any time as figures evolve.
