Karpathy jobs repo returns with AI treemap

Andrej Karpathy’s US Job Market Visualizer is back on GitHub and live at karpathy.ai/jobs, mapping 342 Bureau of Labor Statistics occupations by growth outlook, pay, education, and a custom “Digital AI Exposure” score. The repo also includes the full scraping, parsing, and LLM scoring pipeline, so developers can fork it and recolor the labor market by other prompts like robotics exposure or offshoring risk.

// ANALYSIS

The interesting part is not the viral heatmap, but the workflow behind it: Karpathy turned public labor data into a reusable prompt-driven analysis stack. That makes this feel less like a one-off infographic and more like a compact blueprint for AI-assisted research tools.

  • The repo cleanly separates scraping, parsing, scoring, and site generation, which makes it unusually hackable for anyone who wants to repurpose the pipeline.
  • The “Digital AI Exposure” layer is intentionally framed as a rough LLM estimate, not a rigorous forecast of which jobs disappear next.
  • Because the scoring prompt is swappable, the same system can be reused for other lenses like humanoid robotics, climate impact, or offshoring risk.
  • It is a good example of where LLMs shine today: fast synthesis over messy public data, with humans still responsible for interpretation and caveats.
