According to Andrej Karpathy on Twitter, the optimal large language model (LLM)-assisted coding experience is shifting from seeking a single perfect workflow to leveraging a mix of specialized AI workflows. Karpathy notes that his personal coding productivity is now driven by diversifying across several LLM-powered tools and processes, each offering unique strengths and weaknesses. This approach enables developers to 'stitch together' the best aspects of various AI coding assistants, optimizing for different tasks and project requirements. This trend highlights growing opportunities for AI tool developers to create targeted, interoperable solutions that address specific pain points in the software development lifecycle (source: @karpathy, August 24, 2025).
