A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Here are my three best guesses, which are as good as anyone's on this point. Maybe it'll garner some discussions because the industries ability to seemingly break all barriers and avoid the cliff thus far are surprising:

  1. Memory companies will be a sign first.
  2. AI recruiting companies (Mercor) slow recruiting and don't post as many jobs or at such high rates.
  3. Utility usage decreases in areas with major AI data centers. (I really wish I had access to data on this).
