About Ilya Sutskever's 30 Papers
Explore the deep learning reading list Ilya Sutskever gave John Carmack, with free audio explainers for AlexNet, ResNet, Transformers, scaling laws, and more. These courses, books, and code-heavy pieces do not currently have a ListenDock audio episode. When legendary game programmer John Carmack decided to move into AI, he asked OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever what he should read. Ilya handed him a list of around thirty works and said that learning them would cover 90% of what matters in modern deep learning.
About PageForth
An AI news reader for Mac, like the old NewsFire. Point it at any site (no RSS feed needed) and it summarizes every article on-device with Apple Intelligence. I've been building software for 25+ years, from Highrise and Draft to two trips through Y Combinator. These days I'm a Staff Engineer at Fivetran, after helping build Census as a founding engineer through its acquisition. PageForth is the kind of tool I like making: small, opinionated, and built to remove steps from things you do every day.
