what this does

Autoresearch is an autonomous AI research agent developed by Andrej Karpathy. It specializes in overnight experimentation with LLM modifications, learning optimal architectures and hyperparameters within tight training budgets.

example workflow
  1. Configure the agent with target LLM architectures.
  2. Set training budget constraints (e.g., 5 minutes).
  3. Allow the agent to autonomously modify and train models overnight.
  4. Review the optimal architectures and hyperparameters found.
  5. Implement the learned optimizations in production models.
