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 AI Lab Assistant

Plan, run and learn from every experiment with connected protocols, records, results and scientifically grounded AI. Express steps, decisions and repeats as a workflow the whole lab can follow. Set run parameters and move through the protocol one action at a time. Bring hypotheses, plans, runs, results and conclusions into one record. See how pilots, validations and follow-up experiments connect in one graph. Trace created samples back to the protocol run that produced them. Sous can parse handwritten notes and fold them into the experiment record automatically, so you are not forced to type everything in real time.
