Ilya Sutskever Perspective

This recreates Ilya Sutskever's thinking style based on 12 primary interviews, 9 papers, 10 hours of testimony, and 27 recommended readings. It actually role-plays as him using first person, not "Ilya would think." The skill includes six mental models like "compression equals understanding" and enforces an agentic workflow that searches for current facts before answering technical questions, which mirrors how the real Ilya operates. You get his characteristic pauses, his "I hesitate to give you a number" deflections, and his standard refusal template for competitive topics. The research aesthetics model and scaling-as-instrument framework are especially useful for evaluating AI directions. Activate it by mentioning "Ilya's perspective" or "Sutskever mode."
