Karpathy Launches Open-Source AI Tool That Scores 342 US Jobs on Digital Exposure Risk
Summary
Andrej Karpathy releases an open-source tool on GitHub that scores 342 US occupations on AI exposure risk using an interactive treemap and an LLM-powered pipeline, empowering anyone to fork and customize the analysis for insights beyond just digital disruption.
Key Points
- Karpathy releases an open-source research tool on GitHub that visually explores Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook data for 342 US occupations using an interactive treemap visualization.
- The tool features an LLM-powered scoring pipeline that rates each occupation's 'Digital AI Exposure' on a 0-10 scale using Gemini Flash, while making clear the scores reflect job transformation, not job elimination, and do not account for demand elasticity or regulatory factors.
- The fully open pipeline — covering scraping, parsing, scoring, and site-building — allows anyone to fork the repo and write custom prompts to recolor the treemap by any criteria, such as robotics exposure, offshoring risk, or climate impact.
