Bjarnason Says AI Hastens Tech Collapse
Baldur Bjarnason frames the current moment as a structural break in tech: the old software and web economy is decaying, while the next order has not yet formed. The piece argues that AI is not just another feature wave but part of a broader collapse in the social contract between creators, platforms, and users, with monopolies, layoffs, degraded software quality, and extractive platform behavior all pointing in the same direction.
Bun merges 1M line Rust rewrite
