Trail

Connection thesis

GitHub trending activity (MetaGPT multi-agent framework gaining 67k+ stars, robotics 'ChatGPT moment' on HN) combined with 'Who is hiring' thread activity suggests developer sentiment remains constructive on AI tooling despite tech layoffs. This indicates a bifurcation: infrastructure/AI tools are hiring/funding, while legacy/application layer tech is contracting. The narrative is shifting from 'AI is coming' to 'AI infrastructure is consolidating.'
