Tech layoffs are spiking again, and executives are pointing fingers at AI. It’s a convenient narrative designed to cover up years of reckless over-hiring and structural debt. If you are tired of the corporate fluff and unverified "trust us, bro" capabilities coming out of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, this breakdown is your intellectual palate cleanser.

We introduce a simple philosophical frame to instantly de-hype any narrative: replace the word "AI" with "computer" and see if the panic holds up. From there, we expose the mechanics of automated code vulnerability scanning. While tech giants claim their new systems can secure the web, the reality is that AI-generated slop is effectively DDoS-ing open-source maintainers with unexploitable gravel instead of real software fixes.

Finally, we follow the money. Discover why venture capital funds and tech leaders are driving the hype cycle toward massive initial public offerings (IPOs), why the goalposts for AGI will miraculously shift once those cash-outs hit, and how soaring data center and compute costs are already forcing enterprise companies to quietly restrict their token usage.
