AI brief
Andrej Karpathy said about 75 percent of the world's population has barely used large language models, while roughly 5,000 people have access to internal frontier systems whose agent swarms do more advanced work.
Why it matters: It points to a gap between how most people experience AI and what those with access to internal frontier systems can do.
