There are summaries for each paper on the landing page. Also as you read the papers, key/difficult words are highlighted and you can click on them to get a simple definition quickly. A few people have asked for write ups on what my takeaways from each paper were so I am currently working on that.

If there are any suggestions that anyone has for things that would help them with the papers I will definitely add them. My main goal is to make this as easy as possible for people to use

The list came from a post on X by ex-OpenAI employee Andrew Carr. There are multiple lists floating around which is why I said rumoured. I found this to be a more credible source than others though given Sutskever's connection to OpenAI so I used it.

Hey guys, I really appreciate all of the attention this post has received. I honestly thought it was going to be just a small project to help some of my friends get into reading research papers.

A large number of people complained about how intense some of the backgrounds/animations were (I might have been a bit too focused on making something that looked cool over usability). In response I have added toggles for both the movement on the page and the backgrounds for the papers.

Other people mentioned that they would have liked some more personalised reflections on each paper. I currently have already done some of these for the more popular papers on my X @notmcrowley . I would have no problem adding these to the site if people think it will help. I feel the need to warn that I have not been formally educated on ML or AI so any interpretation will just be mine and may not necessarily be the correct one. (If anyone with more experience would like to contribute to this feel free to reach out).

The list I got was from ex-OpenAI employee Andrew Carr on X. I believe he said in his post however that the list he uploaded is not the full list they were provided at OpenAI however.

Hey thanks for checking out the website. I did not expect this to get as much attention as it did. I was honestly just planning on having it as a small side project for my friends and some others who would like to get into this kind of stuff. I will definitely annotate them in the future if that is something that people would appreciate. I currently have something like this done for a few papers on my X account.

Author here. First year CS student at Trinity College Dublin. I Built this because when I was getting into reading research papers I ended up burning a ton of my Claude usage asking questions other people have probably already asked. The website is just a side project and definitely a WIP. Happy to answer questions or take PRs on GitHub.
