According to 1M AI News monitoring, the concept of 「vibe coding」's proposer, OpenAI founding member Andrej Karpathy, revealed in the No Priors podcast that December of last year was a turning point in his workflow. Previously, his ratio of self-coding to delegating to Agent was about 80:20. After December, this flipped to 20:80, and 「it's probably even more now」, 「I probably haven't written a line of code since December」.
He referred to this state as 「AI psychosis」: the boundaries of Agent's capabilities have not been fully explored yet, 「anything is possible, and all failures ultimately boil down to a skill issue」. He began focusing on Token throughput like he used to monitor GPU utilization during his PhD days, 「if you don't use up your subscription quota, it means you haven't maximized output」. He also described the 「jaggedness」 of Agent: 「I feel like I'm simultaneously having a conversation with an extremely smart Ph.D. who's been doing systems programming his whole life, and having a conversation with a ten-year-old kid.」
