Andrej Karpathy breaks down the capability gap
Summary
Karpathy argues that understanding of LLM capability is widening into a funnel: millions have minimal exposure, a sizable minority are casual users, a small cohort of professionals leverage frontier-grade systems, and a tiny insider group wields the most advanced capabilities. He notes that capability scales with problem size and verifiable domains, and that access controls how people experience AI, underscoring a growing adoption gap.
