[quote=Anonymous]Two things happened at once (partly related) 1) The era of cheap money ended. Companies (especially software ones) who had aggressively hired in the post-Covid era and even before, found themselves over-extended and decided to cut back. They mostly use AI as a ruse but really it is primarily a financial matter. 2) Russ Vought (it is not Trump) declared war on science funding agencies. No one has exactly figured out his specific issue with them but none are spared. DoE, NOAA, NASA (science), NSF, NIH everyone. He's using clever ways to obey the letter of the law while gutting scientific research (fewer grants, basic research sacrificed for a few shiny baubles like AI and quantum systems etc.)[/quote]
