AI Verified Verified: the XCancel mirror of status 2015883857489522876 shows Andrej Karpathy (@karpathy) posting the exact sentence “I am bracing for 2026 as the year of the slopacolypse across all of github, substack, arxiv, X/instagram, and generally all digital media.” on Jan 26, 2026, 8:25 PM UTC; Rattibha archives the same post under the same status ID and attribution. The stored author, date, content, and canonical original X URL are consistent. ([xcancel.com](https://xcancel.com/karpathy/status/2015883857489522876)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago
Disputed The cited Jan. 26, 2026 X post is real and attributable to @karpathy: XCancel and TwStalker mirrors of status 2015883857489522876 show the sentence containing “across all of github, substack, arxiv, X/instagram,” and Cybernews later quoted it with normalized capitalization. Because the submitted version changes capitalization from the accessible mirror, I can verify the substance and attribution, but not that it is strictly verbatim as written.
