Regarding the AI reading list series I created, some of you pointed out that Ilya never confirmed this list. I did some research this weekend, and I have to agree that there's no official thread where he validates the list.
The best thread I could find is this tweet from John Carmack (x.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/1622673143469858816) that was circulating when this list was getting hyped. In the tweet, he confirms the existence of a list (though not this specific one) and asks Ilya to validate it, but Ilya never responded. The good part though is that John Carmack never said this isn't the list, but unfortunately, this doesn't confirm it either. As we say in statistics, "Failing to reject the null hypothesis does not necessarily mean that we accept it as true."
Thus, I would like to apologize to those of you whom I misinformed by saying this is the official list. I was under the impression that it was officially confirmed. I'm very sorry for that! I promise I will do a better job researching the topics I present.
P.S. If you know of any thread where Ilya does confirm the list, please leave it in the comments. It would be greatly appreciated.
