H100 ornn index spot prices are falling, now at $2.42 per hour, roughly 40% below the May peak. The ecosystem is concerned that this is a sign that compute demand and by extension the appetite for AI is waning. (1/5)🧵
@VolumeLeaders@PolycarpFX Once the pullback began the amount buying of VOO grew daily while for IVV and SPYM the selling grew daily. Today, they started buying IVV and SPYM again. @VolumeLeaders
Q: How are job postings for software engineers rising rapidly despite AI agents automating coding?
A: Because there’s far more code to manage than ever before. We’re already seeing a 14x YoY increase in GitHub commits, and it’s accelerating.
AI has dramatically lowered the cost of writing code, so it’s now being used across far more businesses, applications, and use cases.
We’re at the beginning of a massive productivity boom driven by the proliferation of bespoke software throughout the entire economy.
Coding has been AI’s breakout use case this year. The fact that it’s increased demand for software engineers — rather than decreased it — should call into question the entire “AI will cause mass job loss” narrative.
