An Evolving Strategy for Knowledge Work: From Human-In-the-Loop to Human-Before-the-Loop

An Evolving Strategy for Knowledge Work: From Human-In-the-Loop to Human-Before-the-Loop Andrej Karpathy's autoresearch project = Ralph Wiggum+ (Humans Decide/Describe, AI Tweaks/Tests on Repeat, keeping what moves toward the goal) You set a goal last night and went to sleep. By morning, your AI researcher had run 100 experiments to chase it: trying approaches, measuring results, discarding failures, iterating again. You didn't execute a single step of the research. You wrote a text file describing what you wanted and how you'd know when you'd found it. This is not a thought experiment.
