Both trending repositories in Github are related to "agentic companies", one of them being an orchestration for "zero-human companies", the other being some kind of generic marketplace for agentic skills, whatever that means

Tech bros are salivating at the idea. The generation of tech bros that brought us the "disruption" of taxis and hotels, by not hiring staff but instead paying gig workers horribly, now found a way to also let go all other office staff.

    I can't tell if they haven't thought through what that would mean for them themselves, or they know it's BS but it's still good for marketing.

    Tech bros have been moving fast and breaking things since forever. AI just needs to be kinda OK at doing HR and accounting and other boring useless company jobs. If something goes wrong, it's just the VC money that's at stake. And the solution is more AI and more VC money.
