Karpathy: only about 5,000 people may have seen what AI is truly capable of (article body unavailable)

Note to readers: the download of this article from The New Stack did not include the body text. Only the page code came through, with subscription forms, menus and lists of other articles. As a result, it is not possible to accurately summarize the arguments or figures in the original text.

The only thing that can be stated with certainty is what the headline says. The New Stack published a piece dated October 12, 2026 and bylined by Amanda Caswell, titled «Andrej Karpathy says only 5,000 people have seen what AI can really do». In other words, it attributes to Andrej Karpathy, the well-known AI researcher, the idea that only about 5,000 people have seen what AI is truly capable of.

We do not have the context for that claim. We don't know where the figure comes from, who it includes, or what evidence or examples are offered. Nor do we know whether Karpathy meant it as a literal estimate or as hyperbole. Readers should therefore read the original article before drawing conclusions.
