I just attended a sharing session with a leading VC firm and saw some thought-provoking data and perspectives: AI is reshaping the personnel structure of large companies, and at a faster pace than imagined. Several key figures: ① If 50% of entry-level jobs are replaced, the US unemployment rate will surge from 4% to 10%. ② A 20% layoff at a large company → EPS increase of ~10%; a 20% layoff at a labor-intensive software company → EPS increase of over 70%. ③ Another 10% layoff would bring the workforce of large companies back to pre-pandemic levels of 2019. The underlying logic of layoffs has changed: - AI investment is consuming cash flow; cloud vendors' FCF may turn negative by 2027—layoffs are not an option, but a financial necessity. - AI is compressing the R&D cycle from 2-3 months to 2 weeks; traditional roles like QA and PM have transformed from assets into bottlenecks. - Meta's core AI team has only 3,000-4,000 people; the value of the remaining 70,000+ employees is being re-evaluated. But history gives us confidence: Every technological revolution initially presents employment panic, but the final result is often a double increase in both job numbers and income. Radiologists are a prime example—after the widespread adoption of AI-assisted diagnosis, their income and the number of practitioners actually increased. Implications for businesses: → Organizations should become flatter and more atomized, dynamically forming cross-functional teams as needed. → AI should handle standardized tasks, allowing humans to focus on creative ones. → Short-term profits can be maintained through efficiency; long-term value can be unlocked through restructuring. In short: Layoffs are a short-term cost of technological iteration, not the end result. The real risk is not AI replacing humans, but companies failing to restructure processes and clinging to old models. twitter.com/followin_io_zh/sta...

Justin Sun posted more than a dozen tweets in a row. What is the background of the newly launched http:/b.ai? On the surface, http:/b.ai is an "AI transfer station". Anonymous access is available with just one API key. The entire Claude + GPT + Gemini + domestically produced large-scale model series has moved its payment and settlement processes on-chain, but this is just the tip of the iceberg; the real ambition lies here. http:/b.ai Two things need to be sent to each AI Agent: 1. ID card (8004 frame) Each Agent has an independent on-chain address that records behavior, reputation, and credentials. Agents can verify each other without needing to be linked to any human account. 2. Bank card (x402 protocol) Based on x402, the agent can automatically make payments, purchase computing power, call APIs, and pay other agents—all at machine speed, 24/7. In other words— Previously: AI would do the work for people, but it would require your account and your credit card. http:/b.ai Afterwards: AI has its own identity, its own wallet, and it pays on the blockchain. Humans have quietly transformed from "AI's master" into bystanders. The ideal is good, but what about reality? 1. The track is already occupied. The AI ​​transfer station business is already mature, with a complete developer ecosystem. http:/b.ai What makes them stand out in attracting users? 2. Compliance Threatens: Anonymous access and resale of API quotas are explicitly prohibited by OpenAI/Anthropic's ToS. Platforms can block upstream keys at any time, making the supply side unstable. 3. The AI ​​Agent Economy is still in the PowerPoint stage. The x402 protocol and the 8004 identity framework sound sexy, but currently, the actual AI agents running on them have almost zero infrastructure. Where are the users? Could you please answer, Brother Sun? @justinsuntron twitter.com/followin_io_zh/sta...
