Anthropic has hired Andrej Karpathy, a co-founder of OpenAI and former director of artificial intelligence and Autopilot Vision at Tesla.
“I’ve joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D (research and development). I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time,” Kathpathy wrote on X.
Karpathy began work this week inside Anthropic’s pre-training group and will operate under team lead Nick Joseph, TechChrunch reported. Anthropic describes pre-training as the stage that runs massive training jobs that underpin Claude’s baseline knowledge and abilities, and it is also among the most compute-heavy and costly parts of developing top-tier models.
