Every time Karpathy quits his job, the field takes a leap forward because he makes some fantastic educational resource in his free time.

Wow - that earnestly gave me goosebumps. I'm a Googler myself and it's humbling seeing him casually describe, 10 years ago, a technology the industry was still in the early stages of developing, which has since taken the world by storm. What a rockstar.

Neural networks were already big 10 years ago, you have to go back 15 years to see before they started being popular.

From wikipedia:

> Between 2009 and 2012, ANNs began winning prizes in image recognition contests, approaching human level performance on various tasks, initially in pattern recognition and handwriting recognition.

That was when Neural networks became a big thing every tech person knew about, 2014 it was already in full swing and you had neural networks do stuff everywhere, like recognizing faces or classifying images.

NN were already a casual topic in my high school computer science class more than 20 years ago. I've always assumed they were already fairly common by that point. (~2000)
