This was my favorite talk at AISUS because it was so full of concrete insights I hadn't heard before and (even better) practical points about what to build now, in the immediate future. (To mention just one example: the "autonomy slider".)

If it were up to me, which it very much is not, I would try to optimize the next AISUS for more of this. I felt like I was getting smarter as the talk went on.

On one hand, I think Karpathy is a gifted educator in a way that's not repeatable as a science. On the other, if the conference leaders next year told every presenter to watch this talk and emulate how Karpathy focuses on concrete insights and suggests what to build now, then the overall quality of presentations would probably trend higher.
