In early 2025, Andrej Karpathy introduced the concept of "vibe coding" to describe a new approach to programming. Yet by this week, he himself confessed to feeling more lost as a developer than ever before. The very person who named this shift can't keep pace with it. And the rest of us? We're not really adapting to the speed of change—we're just sinking at a slower rate. It's a stark reminder that the pace of technological evolution has outrun our capacity to absorb it.

NGL, this is just outrageous. Even Karpathy himself is confused, so what are we pretending for?

Haha, Karpathy is almost drowning, and we are just slowly sinking. The nice way to put it is "vibe coding," but the harsh truth is just flailing around in the waves... No matter how deep the liquidity is, it can't save this situation.

Even Karpathy shakes his head, and we're still here pretending to understand vibe coding.

Karpathy is already dizzy, and we're still pretending. The speed of technological iteration is really overwhelming us.

Karpathy is almost falling behind, and we're still here researching vibe coding. LOL, the pace of technological iteration has long gotten out of control.

Karpathy can't hold on anymore, what are we humans still competing for...
