Podcast Lesson
"Reframe failures as skill gaps, not capability limits Andrej Karpathy reflects on working with AI coding agents and noticing that when things go wrong, it rarely means the technology lacks the capability. As he puts it, "even if they don't work I think to a large extent you feel like it's skill issue. It's not that the capability is not there. It's that you just haven't found a way to string it together." Treating dead ends as personal skill gaps rather than hard limits keeps you experimenting and improving rather than quitting.
