Ask HN: AI Reading List

In the thread about John Carmack presentation, somebody mentioned the reading list he got from Ilya which were crucial to understand what matters and the current state of the knowledge (at the time).

After some googling, it seems like this list is plausible, although not confirmed: https://github.com/dzyim/ilya-sutskever-recommended-reading?tab=readme-ov-file

What would an actualized list look today ?

I'm asking since I'm taking a similar direction to Carmack (with maybe 1% of his talent and skills, but hey it's all about the journey !) in that I don't intend to work on improvement existing models, which I also believe are a road to nowhere, but rather understand things from the ground up, and maybe figure out 'something different' at the end.
