Karpathy's Slack bot 'paradigm' shows AI is a bubble, just like dot-com

A former OpenAI and Tesla AI leader calls Anthropic's Claude-in-Slack a 'new paradigm,' while critics see hype. The author argues the AI boom mirrors the dot-com era, where both skeptics and believers were right. He proposes a framework: ask what AI enables that we couldn't do before, rather than picking a mood. He plans to test this hypothesis in a series, starting with the assumption that models won't become dependable enough to settle the debate.
