Connection thesis
Large-cap tech firms are layering AI productivity claims over structural labor replacement. Oracle's 10K cuts + OpenAI's $852B valuation + HackerNews concern about 'slop' suggests market is pricing AI-driven efficiency while engineering quality degrades. This creates a valuation vs. execution gap: market rewards narrative, but downstream software reliability metrics (outages +18% since 2022 per 16392) will eventually punish execution. Short-term: equity enthusiasm continues. Medium-term: margin compression as technical debt compounds.
