Summary: Andrej Karpathy, co-creator of ChatGPT, quietly built a research agent, fed it the entire US job market and scored 143 million jobs on their AI exposure. The results went viral, then he deleted the whole thing. Thankfully someone cloned the repo before it vanished. The takeaway is blunt: if your job lives on a screen, you're looking at a 7, 8, or 9 out of 10 on the AI risk scale. Software developers, lawyers, customer support, travel agents, all deep in the red. Nurses, plumbers, electricians? Barely a scratch. We walked through the whole chart live and I'll be honest, it's equal parts fascinating and uncomfortable.

Beyond the jobs data, we covered a genuinely brilliant story out of Australia where a bloke with zero medical training used ChatGPT and DeepMind's AlphaFold to design a personalised cancer vaccine for his dog. It worked. The tumour halved. The red tape took longer than the actual science, which tells you everything about where we are right now. We also talked about Meta quietly falling out of the AI race after their new model flopped internal benchmarks, and I walked through a bunch of Claude Code skill repositories so you can start plugging domain expertise straight into your AI workflow.
