I think Karpatgy's nanogpt series is a great alternative to this.

The stages of learning
- 1 Unconscious incompetence - you don't know that you don't know.
- 2 Conscious incompetence - you try something and it doesn't work.
- 3 Conscious competence - you get to the point that things work and you understand how you did it.
- 4 Unconscious competence - you can do things without having to consciously think it through, you can enter a flow state.
I have assummed that openAI only hires ML experts.
" For the first three years of OpenAI, I dreamed of becoming a machine learning expert but made little progress towards that goal. "
Is he just a student? But on the picture he looks older than a typical student. Dont get it why he was hired by openAI and for what role? And why I should care about the blog?
OpenAI hires ml experts AND software engineers. For the first few years at OpenAI, he was much more of the second as his knowledge of ml was very minimal.
Look him up (he has a Wikipedia page) or ask ChatGPT. It will be much more easier than explaining in Reddit.
From what I've read, top AI labs hire for proven aptitude. PhDs in Physics, SWEs that built impressive cutting-edge things, people already deep in ML research.
The field is so new that people like him can catch up in a few months and really know their stuff. They believe in talent density, fewer highly capable people. Although that might change if they want to grow to be giant tech cos - someone has to do the grunt work.
