I think it is possibly safe to say that the Meta level companies and alike companies will be come increasingly less dependent on employing labor year over year going forward! And will only use contractors as needed. I feel this is the framework.

Big week for AI infrastructure. When companies like Meta Platforms expand compute deals while Nvidia kicks off Nvidia GTC, it really highlights how the AI race is increasingly about who can secure the most compute. Models get the headlines, but GPUs, data centers, and power capacity are becoming the real strategic assets.
It’ll be interesting to see how this scales over the next few years as more companies compete for the same infrastructure. The demand for AI compute doesn’t look like it’s slowing down anytime soon. 🚀
