Eight days after Karpathy open-sourced autoresearch, the community ported the pattern to GPU kernels, security hardening, Apple Silicon, and agent optimization. The loop - one file, one metric, git as memory - turns out to be the interesting part.

Karpathy's autoresearch gives an AI agent a training script, a GPU, and a git branch. It runs 100 experiments overnight, keeps what works, discards what doesn't. The human writes the prompt. The agent writes the code.
