Former Tesla AI boss Andrej Karpathy is joining Anthropic.
Karpathy, who had also been on the founding team of OpenAI, says he will be working on R&D at Anthropic. Previously, he had been working on “new kind of school that is AI native,” and he says he’s still “deeply passionate about education” and plans to go back to it “in time.” [Image: A screenshot of an X post from Andrej Karpathy. https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-19-at-8.38.56AM.png?quality=90&strip=all]

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.— Andrej Karpathy (@karpathy) May 19, 2026
Essays in Indian History: Towards a Marxist Perception ; With, The Economic History of Medieval India: a Survey
This volume brings together, for the first time, several of Professor Habib's essays, representing three decades of scholarship and providing an insightful interpretation of the main currents in Indian history from the standpoint of Marxist historiography. The collection examines the role played by the peasantry and caste in Indian history; explores the forms of class struggle and the stage of Indian economic development in Mughal India; analyses the impact of colonialism on the Indian economy; and chronicles the changes in Marx's perception of India. These painstakingly researched and erudite essays form a volume that is indispensable for scholars and students of Indian history.

Less review, not more, please. Review can support rigor, but often stifles innovation. I fear that in pursuit of the former, we have ended up with too much of the latter. https://t.co/e8y0gEr3VF— Arjun Raj (@arjunrajlab) March 25, 2026
Optimistic Computing
I recently made two new friends: Abhinav Omprakash and Dawn Walker. Abhinav said I’m an optimist and I should write about it. Dawn said I shouldn’t try to coin any new terms. I should know better, but this essay follows Abhinav’s recommendation — and credits Dawn, in the very likely event I should have followed her advice instead. I have been alive for approximately four decades. Each of those decades was witness to its own fun brand of computering.
