The software industry lost $285 billion in 48 hours after Anthropic launched Claude Cowork. By March, the total SaaS selloff crossed $2 trillion. Hardware got cheap enough to run capable models locally. The application layer became free to replicate. And the market repriced every software company on Earth.
This video breaks down why the moat in tech shifted from software to the infrastructure underneath it. AI wrapper startups getting wiped out. Hyperscalers buying nuclear power plants. NVIDIA's 20 year CUDA lock in. And the data showing developers are actually slower with AI coding tools than they think.
The engineers winning right now understand what to build the code on top of. That matters more than the code itself.
