    Trying to be a little less negative than the guy that got flagged, I too don't understand the motivation behind these projects. I've seen a hundred of them at this point- and each of them is probably worse and has less learning value than the one Andrej Karpathy made to teach people the building blocks involved in a GPT

    So, why do people keep making these? Asking genuinely

      Fun? I am unsure why it keeps getting shared though, I too have reinvented the wheel a few times for fun.

      * Edit, I did however just notice literally all of this is just another vibeslopped banger, so I am not quite sure how much fun there really is, feels more like coding for the sake of keeping the wheel turning.
