Andrej Karpathy launches HackerTube, a Claude-curated YouTube alternative built from Hacker News comments

The former Tesla AI chief used Anthropic's models to mine nearly two decades of comments for 6,454 community-vetted videos Andrej Karpathy has launched HackerTube, a video site that skips the algorithm and asks a simpler question: what did Hacker News commenters actually recommend? The answer, after AI processing, is 6,454 videos sorted into 150 topics. It’s a YouTube alternative assembled from the collective memory of one of the internet’s most opinionated comment sections. Karpathy, the former head of AI at Tesla , launched the site on October 31, 2026. It lives at hackertube.org. The concept is narrow by design.
