Karpathy Demonstrates Autonomous ML Experiment Loop
On March 7, Andrej Karpathy pushed a 630-line Python script to GitHub and his AutoResearch agent ran roughly 50 experiments overnight, discovered a better learning rate, and committed the change automatically. The article identifies three primitives—an editable asset, a scalar metric, and a time-boxed cycle—and argues that a Markdown program.md file serves as the high-leverage human-agent interface. The pattern generalizes beyond ML to databases and support routing.
